Package: cupsys-bsd
Version: 1.1.23-12
Severity: important

I am not very sure, if this is the actual package that has bug.

If normal luser tries to print with lpr-command, his/her print can be seen in
output of lpq-command only very shortly, but nothing happens. Printer
just stays in normal state. Also printing with xpp and gtklp goes to some kind
of bit heaven.

If I open page http://localhost:631/printers with WWW-browser, this can
be seen in that certain printer that were used for printing attempt:

Canon LBP-8A1 Foomatic/lbp8
Description: Canon LBP-8 Mark IV
Location:
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs.
"Back-channel read error - Input/output error!"
Device URI: canon:/dev/lp0

Permissions of /dev/lp0 are like this:

crw-rw----  1 root lp 6, 0 Sep 28 13:52 /dev/lp0

If I add that normal luser to group called lp or give command "chmod ugo+rw
/dev/lp0", it does not help, either.

Hello,

this bug report has not been updated for years, is hard to reproduce,
and/or is likely fixed in current cups packages in Lenny. Therefore I
am closing it now. If you disagree and still have the problem, please
speak up, then I will reopen.

Thank you!

Martin
