Hello, I've been having issues printing with my Deskjet D4160. I'm running Arch Linux (fully updated as of today). I have attached my hp-check.log as requested. And I wish to report that I've had the same issues while using my previous distro, Ubunty 7.04 Feisty Fawn.
Here are my observations: 1) The D4160 prints normally after a reboot of the whole system, but only for the first print job. 2) The printer behaves the following way on the 2nd print job and each successive one: When a document is sent to the print queue, the printer remains idle (no obvious physical activity) for approximately 45 seconds to 1 minute. The printer feeds the paper about 2 inches, and then stalls for another 15-30 seconds. Finally, the printer prints normally, finishing the print job and performing its normal shutdown routine. Print jobs never fail, but there are two long "stalls" in the middle of the process. I have tried restarting CUPS to see if that fixes the problem, but it doesn't. I suspect this problem is related to udev, but I can't figure it out. I've read about people having issues with permissions, but I don't know which files to check out. I have a good representative snippet of the CUPS error log, set to "LogLevel Debug", that I could attach in a future post. It is approx. 52 KB in size. Or would it be better to paste the error log into the body of the email? I can provide as many details about my system as necessary, if they are needed to lead to a resolution. ---- Also, if this is the appropriate place for a feature request, I would like to request an option for a 300x300 dpi resolution setting for this printer. I use this resolution for the D4160 all the time when I print in Windows XP, and I would be grateful if this resolution setting could be added to the D4160s ppd. Thanks for your support, Patrick
