Karl,
I've had this issue on two servers and it appears to be a Cups issue, not an LTSP issue. The systems were running fine under Debian Woody and the issue started after upgrading to Sarge. Nothing had changed in LTSP.

The resolution for me was finding the correct printer drivers. The printers (two different HPs) worked fine (that is print jobs came out looking correct) using several different drivers but it wasn't until I used the hpijs (or something like that) driver that the disabled problem went away.

Running LTSP-4.1.

Have problems with some printers attached to terminals going into a "disabled" state. Using the CUPS command line tools we can enable them and they start printing right away. But I am not sure how to troubleshoot why they are going "disabled." It might happen once or twice a month. We have some HP JetDirect print servers and they work fine, its only some of the terminals.

Here is a typical setup from lts.conf

PRINTER_0_DEVICE   =  /dev/lp0
PRINTER_0_TYPE       =  P


All the printers on the terminals are parallel printers.

We have the same problem with another server running LTSP 4.1.1
