I tried using the command line to research bugs and report my printer problem, but I do not have enough knowledge to interpret the terminology used. Below is a description of my problem.
October 19, 2013 Preface My Lexmark printers' performance using Lenovo laptop computers 3000 N200 (i386) and z575 (amd64) degraded after the operating systems were updated or upgraded. The problem seems to correlate with updates in the Common Unix Printing (CUPS) system. Normal Functioning First, printing with the Lenovo laptops a month ago produced no errors. The Debian 6.0 system on the 3000 N200 supported printing from Lexmark x544 and Lexmark E360dn. Tray 1 and manual feed functioned properly. Lexmark printer performance was also good using Linux mint 14 and 15 with the Lenovo z575. Incidentally if I understand correctly Debian squeeze is using cups-client 1.4.4-7 squeeze2 i386.deb Problem Linux Mint 15 was updated on the z575 around the beginning of October 2013. Printer function suffered. Debian on the 3000 n200 was upgraded to Debian 7.0 and printer function degraded. Printing would stop after a few prints. The only output was a line of characters at the top of the page. The manual tray would work intermittently depending on the print file used. Debian Jessie was installed on 10-15-13 a.m. and similar printer dysfunction persists. Cups 1.5.3-5+deb7u1 is the installed version in Debian 7.2. Ubuntu 13.10 replaced Debian Jessie as a second operating system on the 3000 n200 on 10-15-13 p.m. That system uses cups-client 1.7.0~rc1-Obuntu5 i386.deb. The Lexmark E360dn will stop printing after the first print. The only output is a line of characters. Turning the printer off will allow one more print. This mode of only getting one print while using Ubuntu 13.10 applies to tray 1 and the manual feed. If this problem has already been reported, can you send me the bug number for it?
