When I want to print some of the pages, which have pictures, from my latex-compiled pdf they dont print correctly, the picture is not printed, runing pdf2ps and then ps2pdf on the pictures, before compiling by latex, solved the problem for some pages but not for all of them, any solution? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44989 Title: Doesn't print (large) PDF files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/44989/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 44989] Re: Doesn't print (large) PDF files
hi there, I'm running Lucid Lynx 10.04 and have exactly the same problem printing large PDF's with evince. It says the job is too big even though the PDF file is only 4MB and my printer has 32MB of RAM. the problem seems to be that evince is trying to reprocess the file and it makes it very large, in my case, too large for the printer's RAM to handle. The fix suggested by Till: Till Kamppeter wrote on 2009-08-10: #41 Can you all please try cupsctl RIPCache=256m Does this fix your problems of printing large files? did the trick for me for smaller files but for a 4.5 MB one that I have it ballooned up to 36217k which is too large for my printer. It also doesn't work for printing documents like .doc from Google's online document viewer. Can the command be modified to make this work?

the lpr command seems to work albeit slowly for a 4.7MB scanned document that I'm printing. Is there not a better way to get things to print?

Simply try a higher value, for example cupsctl RIPCache=512m If you upgrade to Maverick, you do not need to adjust RIPCache any more. There Ghostscript manages the memory automatically. On Maverick (or newer) run cupsctl RIPCache=auto to cancel any former memory setting. In general upgrading to a newer Ubuntu will always help, as we have fixed a lot of resources problems with Ghostscript and other print filters.

Hi Till, thanks a lot for your help. I moved the document using sudo mv into the directory /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops and renamed the original pdftops into pdftops2. I used the command chmod 755 as indicated by you. When I look at the file properties it says Allow executing file as program. However, user of the file is not root but me. Furthermore, the file type is shell script (application/x-shellscript), whereas the original file type is shared library (application/x-sharedlib). These differences probably account for the fact that the change hasn't improved anything. It is probably quite simple for some to change the file type and user of the file.

Well, this problem was first reported in 2006, three years ago. The proposed solution appears to be straightforward. Evince could simply use lpr for printing adobe files. For the application evince, it's a huge bug, because pdf is the standard document format and printing pdfs should be supported flawlessly by a document viewer. For Ubuntu, it's an important problem too since, hey, evince is the standard document viewer shipped with Ubuntu. Viewing and printing pdf documents is something I do quite a lot.

The parts appear to be larger than the original file, because the file properties report 1.5 MB and 1.7 MB. But, the printer does manage these jobs. However, they are printed incredibly slow.

[Bug 44989] Re: Doesn't print (large) PDF files
kpdf, which prints without any problems sends PDF to CUPS (as all KDE/Qt applications), as lpr does (lpr does no file conversion at all). Evince converts the PDF into PostScript when printing. As our CUPS is PDF- centric (page management is done on PDF data) it converts everything to PDF. So the best solution would be that evince (or GTK) gets switched to send PDF to CUPS, ideally the unchanged input file. -- Doesn't print (large) PDF files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44989 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

If got a similar problem. I could print every pdf in every application with ubuntu 7.10 on a HP laserjet 2605dn, which is a .ps printer. Since I upgraded to ubuntu 8.4 it doesn't work, which means in most cases the file gets to the cups printing queue but never gets over the status processing. There must be a real problem with pdf since the release of ubuntu 8.4. The web is full of bug reports an complains.

[Bug 44989] Re: Doesn't print (large) PDF files
I have had a similar problem using hardy and an epson stylus cx8400 as well as an HP LaserJet 8550 at school. It seems to be independent of the printer since I can reproduce it on just about any printer I try it on. It seems to happen when I print pdfs that are really just scanned images of older papers. However the lpr command mentioned above allowed me to print. Thanks for the tip!

[Bug 44989] Re: Doesn't print (large) PDF files
I'm running Ubuntu 7.10. Brother Laser printer 5250DN connected via the LPT port The problems I have is when printing via evince. it's not the size of the PDF that's an issue. It's if the PDF has images in it. When it tries to print a page with an image in it (esp the color images) it bombs out. Using the command line lpr filename.pdf ; all is good. print from any PDF document viewer in gui I have the problem.

I had the problem with a 7 page pdf article from a journal with evince. I think the problem first showed after I printed once just the first two pages of an article. Maybe changing back did not work properly. It kept printing the first two pages and later just the first page. With xpdf the problem persisted.

I have been having the same issue. PDF's made by scanning (11X17) will not print through Evince or acroread. I can print them using LPR, but only 1/2 of the page prints on 11X17.

I am experiencing this issue with Evince in Gutsy as well.

[Bug 44989] Re: Doesn't print (large) PDF files
I found out that I have a the same problem printing pdf files made from Open Office Impress slides on a HP LaserJet 4350dtn. The file itself is just around 384kB but it cannot even queue using evince. No errors were found in the /var/log/cups/error_log file. When I tried it with lpr filename.pdf, it sent it to the queue, the printer's processing light is blinking but nothing comes out even after 1 hour and other jobs were blocked. I had to cancel the print job to stop it.

[Bug 44989] Re: Doesn't print (large) PDF files
I think it's a problem when the pdf files are converted to postscript before printing. I downloaded Acrobat Reader 7 for linux and it prints fine. Trying to convert the file to ps format (pdf2ps) gives an erroneous output file that keeps growing before I canceled it. I'm still able to open the output but it displays wrongly. Opening the file in kpdf or kghostview looks exactly the same as the pdf2ps output. In evince it looks correct but cannot print, as mentioned before. My guess is probably open office impress sometimes create erroneous pdf files which cannot be handled properly for printing (cannot be converted to ps format correctly) by some applications. -- Doesn't print (large) PDF files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44989 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for evince in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I have a 11,8 MB PDF file which doesn't print at all from Evince (Ubuntu 7.04).
