Package: cups
Version: 2.1.3-1
Severity: important

Justification for severity "important": renders package unusable on
systems only having access to HP LaserJet 9000 printers, and regardless,
CUPS should never behave in such a way as to kill the central office
printer.

Steps to reproduce: Print something.

Expected result: Your document gets printed.

Obtained result: The printer crashes with error 49.60FF and a message to
turn the printer off and on. Moreover, simply deleting the job and
rebooting the printer does not cause the error to go away: as soon as it
turns back on and finishes with its "Initializing..." screen, it
displays the same error message. To recover the printer, it's necessary
to repeatedly press the "Stop" button during printer boot-up and select
the option to cancel the current job from the menu.

The relevant section from my printers.conf:

I'm not quite sure when this problem first appeared. I remember having
been able to print without issue in September, and the problem has
cropped up since.  I'd be happy to try bissecting versions to find when
the problem first appeared, if someone could point me to the likely
source of the problem (cups?  cups-daemon? cups-filters?).
