Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.23-3
Severity: normal

Steps to reproduce with Epson Stylus C84 connected to /dev/usb/lp0:

1) Install gimp
2) Open a big (e.g. A4-sized) color photo in GIMP
3) Right-click, File, Print..., configure the printer so that GIMP knows
that it's Epson Stylus C84 and submits a raw job, not PostScript.
4) Select resolution, tell GIMP that the photo should occupy the whole
page (or maybe with 1cm magrins).
5) Press the "Print" button.

The result is that the top of the photo actually prints, then printing
stops, but the green light on the printer continues flashing until I
manually turn the printer off. The "usb" process doesn't exist at that point
(i.e., it ends prematurely).

I think it's a bug in cupsys and not in gimp or gimp-print because the
steps below do result in the photo being printed on paper in full:

1) Configure GIMP to save the raw print job for Epson Stylus C84 to a
file instead of sending it to lpr
2) Actually print the photo to a file
3) cat file.prn >/dev/usb/lp0
