Title:
Cannot print until reboot after cancelling a job
Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
What I did:
- From Libre Office, sent a job to the printer (i.e. printed a document).
The printer wouldn't print because it was out of color ink, so I decided to
print in grayscale
- I sent a second job to the printer (printing in greyscale) but I had
forgotten to cancel the first one.
So there was one job in the "processing" state and another in the
"pending" state. So far so good.
- I cancelled the job being printed and I hit the "X" button on the
very printer, so as to physically cancell it from the printer as well.
Expected: the pending job should start being printed.
Observed: nothing happened. The second job remained "pending"
So:
- I cancelled the pending job as well. Now there was no pending nor printing
job.
- I turned off the printer. I disconnected and reconnected the printer to
power, I turned it on again.
- I turned on the printer
- I tried printing a new document
Expected: the document should be printed and listed as "printing" in the job
list
Observed: nothing happened. The new job was listed as "pending" since the
very beginning.
- So I cancelled the pending job, and I also switched off and on the printer
again.
- I opened "Printers". I right-clicked on the printer's icon and chose
"properties"
Expected: the printer status should be "idle"
Observed: the printer status was "Printing page 1" or something like that
(while there was no item in the job list).
- I rebooted
- I printed a new document
Observed: printer worked as expected and printed the document.
So there are situations where even after cancelling all printing jobs,
somehow the printer remains in the wrong state as if it was printing something,
while it isn't, and any new job that you send remains in the "pending" state
forever and there's no way to get the printer to work again until a reboot.
