Severity: important
On a system which sends its files to a print server for printing, the
completed jobs are not removed from the print queue, but rather
'saved'. Here is a sample output of 'lpq' after cleaning the print
queue manually, and then printing a single file (the listing has been
sanitized to hide hostnames and room numbers):
# lpq
Printer: oki@client 'Okipage 10ex in room 9999' (dest oki@server.xxxx.ttu.ee)
Queue: no printable jobs in queue
Server: no server active
Status: job 'tt-debian@client+578' saved at 16:22:46.982
Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size
Time
done tt-debian@client+578 A 578 (STDIN) 30
16:22:46
Printer: oki@server 'Okipage 10ex in room 9999'
Queue: no printable jobs in queue
Status: job 'tt-debian@client+578' removed at 16:22:47.114
Here is the printcap file (has worked for ages under potato):
oki|lp|Okipage 10ex in room 9999
:lp=
:rm=server.xxxx.ttu.ee
:rp=oki
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/oki
:mx#0
:sh
lj|citius|HP Laserjet 5L in room 8888
:lp=
:rm=computer.xxxx.ttu.ee
:rp=lj
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lj
:mx#0
:sh
dj|deskjet|HP Deskjet 610C in room 7777
:lp=
:rm=computer.xxxx.ttu.ee
:rp=dj
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/dj
:mx#0
:sh
The print server is running potato (lprng 3.6.12-8) and has not been
recently reconfigured. Another client runs an older woody with lprng
3.7.4-5 and does not exhibit this problem. There are no more woody
hosts around to test.
The main associated risk is that the disk (partition) containing /var
can fill up, stopping logging, mail delivery, etc. Therefore I have
set an 'important' flag on this.
