Edmund, if your case is solved by http://unquietwiki.blogspot.com/2012/05/fixing-pdf-printing-problems-on- ubuntu.html
it is not a USB problem as mentioned here but a separate bug. Also the USB problems mentioned in this bug report are already fixed. Please open a separate bug if you have a problem with USB printing. Note that the packages in my PPA I had uploaded to ask users for testing fixes or new features. There are no general bug fix releases. Such bug fix releases I have issued as SRUs (stable release updates) and these get installed on all user's systems by the usual update process. -- 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/995111 Title: Print failure since upgrade to 12.04 Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “cups” source package in Precise: Triaged Bug description: Since upgrade to 12.04 LTS have had difficulty printing which persists even after re-installing Oneiric. I do not think this is a printer malfunction as netbook running Ubuntu 10.04 cups 1.4.3-1ubuntu1.5 prints just fine. Often occurring with second jobs when the first page appears with a single line of characters at the top and then the printer churns out repeated blank pages until stopped by hitting the printer "stop" button. Currently having the problem with Ubuntu 11.10 with cups 1.5.0-8 and Ubuntu 12.04 with cups 1.5.2-9ubuntu1. Cups Error log does not report an error. The line of characters is not always identical but often similar. The clearest is ERROR: undefined OFFENDING COMMAND: 5rCj3Lri1"+f$rI5+n6R8\*imVK6JF'6bb STACK: More usually 5rCj3Lri1"+f$rI5+n6R8\*imVK6JF'6bb K6LhR1->%^S_n48hjF.$II@,f_rC4^-LP1_'P3RLc;\M Have tried using different driver from bchemnet and in Ubuntu 12.04 installing cups 1.5.0 from archive but these either have not helped or have proved beyond my ability.
