I have the same issue on an Epson Stylus Color 670 inkjet printer, on Precise 12.04.1 (32 and 64 bits). The first print is ok, but the following prints result in random characters (see attached scan) It's a regression because it was working fine on Lucid 10.04.x

Printer I ran the requested tests : lpadmin -p Stylus-COLOR-670 -o usb-unidir-default=true + switch off/on the printer => not better lpadmin -p Stylus-COLOR-670 -R usb-unidir-default lpadmin -p Stylus-COLOR-670 -o usb-no-reattach-default=true + switch off/on the printer => works This setting seems to be kept after a reboot, so it looks like a viable workaround for now ** Attachment added: "Scanned printout of StylusColor670 with random characters" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/872483/+attachment/3422698/+files/EpsonStylusColor670-random-characters.jpeg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872483 Title: laser printer only prints first job correct To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/872483/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
