Jordi, Ernst, can you do the following: In a terminal window, run the command
lpadmin -p <printer> -o usb-unidir-default=true with <printer> being the name of your printer as displayed by the "lpstat -p" command. Now turn off and turn on your printer, then try to print several jobs. Does this solve the problem? If not, run lpadmin -p <printer> -R usb-unidir-default and then lpadmin -p <printer> -o usb-no-reattach-default=true Again, turn off and turn on your printer, then try to print several jobs. Does this solve the problem? If not, try lpadmin -p <printer> -o usb-no-reattach-default=true lpadmin -p <printer> -o usb-unidir-default=true and turn off and turn on your printer, then try to print several jobs. Does this solve the problem? Please tell what works for you. If nothing works, reset all to defaults via lpadmin -p <printer> -R usb-no-reattach-default lpadmin -p <printer> -R usb-unidir-default -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872483 Title: laser printer only prints first job correct Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “cups” source package in Oneiric: Fix Committed Status in “cups” source package in Precise: Fix Released Bug description: please also refer to this bug - this seems to be exactly my issue and does not seem to be solved. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-db/+bug/855412 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 - all updates as of today applied. I followed https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic- db/+bug/855412/comments/20 I printed two copies of the same document, since this forces the error easily. The content under /var/spool/cups/d... look fine - see attached files. after cupsenable <PRINTER> the first copy comes out fine - the second as random character - I stopped after some pages. The test is with Samsung ML-2250 Series (SPL II) - which worked fine under all previous versions of Ubuntu Samsung ML-2250 Foomatic/pxlmono (recommended) generates basically the same result.
