The problem seems to be of the parallel port printing. The backend is not able to pass the data on to the printer through the parallel port. All filters work correctly, but the backend does not succeed to write data. It says D [25/Oct/2010:13:39:30 +0200] [Job 15] Read 8192 bytes of print data... in the error_log and then no more log message of the job appears, especially no "Wrote 8192 bytes of print data...". Seeems that then the backend is waiting infinitely for the printer accepting the data. A possible workaround is to print via network or USB. Can you run the following command ls -l /dev/lp* /dev/parport* and post the output here? Can you also attach your /var/log/syslog after a failed attempt to print? If there are messages containing "audit", try also to deactivate AppArmor with sudo aa-complain cupsd Does this solve the problem? If you still cannot print, can you try to print after running the following commands: chown lp.lp /dev/lp* /dev/parport* chmod 660 /dev/lp* /dev/parport* Does this help? -- Data is not transferred to the printer by cups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/666257 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
