Public bug reported:
I installed a samsung ML2010P. Ubuntu seems to recognize it, on
parallel:/dev/lp0, with its driver SPLIX V2.0.0, the printer is in ready
state, published on the localhost server. Error policy is the default.
CUPS server is activated and connected (/var/run/cups/cups.sock). My
userid is added to CUPS group and to SHADOW group.
However, when I try to print the test page or whatever file from whatever
application (pdf, openoffice, ...) the result is always the same:
1) system sends a message that print starts, everything seems ok so far, ... but
2) before the printer starts, the cursor halts, the keybord and the mouse do
not respond any more and the computer goes blocked
3) I have to manually power off it!
I am novice to Ubuntu and Linux too, and I could have missed something,
but a system should not get stuck in such a way all the times a file is
sent for printing to a printer!
Many thanks in advance for answers.
