This is not a failure of pstoraster, there is a failure somewhere in the
USB subsystem. When CUPS discovers not being able to send out the data
to the printer it cleans up by killing all filter processes with "kill
-9" (unconditional stopping of the process). This causes the
"(/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster) crashed on signal 9!" in the log. To
make your printer working again, try
- Turn the printer off and turn it on again
- Remove the print queue with the "Delete" button of system-config-printer,
close system-config-printer and then turn off and turn on the printer again.
Wait for a message appearing at your system tray. Then try to print again
- If it still does not work, do a full update again (sudo apt-get update; suso
apt-get dist-upgrade) to assure that you have the newest (fixed) HPLIP.
** Changed in: cupsys (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
