Public bug reported:
Hi!
I report this bug against the Dapper version of Cups.
I've attached a Brother HL-1050 Printer via USB to my SOHO server
running Dapper. The first job which is send to CUPS after the printer is
turned on or got connected to the server works without any problem. The
next job send to CUPS never gets printed until I switch the printer
on/off and or dis-/re-connect it from the usb bus.
Within the Cups-Webadmin interface it keeps writing:
Brother_HL-1050_series_USB_1 (Default Printer) "Printer not connected;
will retry in 30 seconds..."
Following processes are running the whole time, even if I restart cupsys
these processes get back if such a job is still in the queue.
