problem with setting page limit
Dear list I am trying to set a page limitation on F17 to a printer installed on a server with manu system users. At the begginig, things looks easy. Si I tryed this command /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p ML-4550-Series -o job-quota-period=604800 -o job-page-limit=2 and I got this in /etc/cups/printers.conf Printer ML-4550-Series UUID urn:uuid:5de5f6d4-255c-3e22-4f2f-77dd7d18eff1 Info ML-4550-Series MakeModel Samsung ML-4600 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.9 Simplified DeviceURI usb://Samsung/ML-4550%20Series?serial=4821B1AB400658F State Idle StateTime 1356611816 Type 4116 Accepting Yes Shared Yes JobSheets none none QuotaPeriod 604800 PageLimit 2 KLimit 0 OpPolicy default ErrorPolicy stop-printer /Printer (I restarted cups) However, when I log as a normal user and print a file with many pages (more than 2) , the print succeed ( the page limit option is set correctly). Do you have an experience with this? regards Adel -- PhD candidate in Computer Science Address 3 avenue lamine, cité ezzahra, Sousse 4000 Tunisia tel: +216 97 246 706 (+33640302046 jusqu'au 15/6) fax: +216 71 391 166 -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Allegedly, on or about 27 December 2012, Adel ESSAFI sent: However, when I log as a normal user and print a file with many pages (more than 2) , the print succeed ( the page limit option is set correctly). I've never tried setting page limits, but I have noticed (in the past) that programs print multiple pages in different ways. Either by sending each page as a different job, or multiple pages as one job. I don't know if page limits should apply to either method, but you might want to try printing with different programs to see if it alters things. Likewise, whether printing a three-page document or three copies of the same page, makes any difference. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.6.10-2.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 11 18:07:34 UTC 2012 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
