Public bug reported: What happens: When I try printing to a USB printer shared over the network through my Linkstation Live NAS, the document is paused even though the printer is turned on and working.
What should happen: The document successfully prints. Steps to reproduce: * Add a network printer (in my case the device URI is lpd://192.168.1.150/lp) * Send a document to the printer Results * The document will get stuck in queue with a status of Held. Clicking the Release selected jobs button will result in the document getting paused again. * Roughly six minutes later a notification bubble will appear stating that the printer is not connected, even though it is turned on. Additional notes: I updated CUPS today to the current version through the update manager, after which printing no longer worked. I did not change any settings, and restarting CUPS did not fix the problem. My laptop can still print to the same printer with the same settings as I have yet to upgrade cups or any related packages on it; I can check the cups version on it if it would help.
