Bug#524850: cups: duplex printing stopped working
Package: cups
Version: 1.3.10-1
Severity: normal
Hi guys,
changing the ip of my printer, I had to reinstall it. It is a HP OfficeJet Pro
L7590 that did work fine. Reinstalling was done by removing the old printer
from cups and install a new printer from the HPIJS toolbox.
Since the reinstall, I cannot print in duplex anymore. When duplex printing is
activated, I got this error in cups error.log :
E [20/Apr/2009:12:34:25 +0200] PID 15424 (/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip)
stopped with status 9!
E [20/Apr/2009:12:34:36 +0200] [Job 82] Job stopped due to filter errors.
I have activated foomatic debugging to see what happened and got the following
trying to print a mail from evolution (from /tmp/foomatic-rip.log):

Viewing the created PDF file (/var/spool/cups/tmp/foomtic-DJ5Jlf) using evince
works fine.
I am available for any more information on the problem if needed.
I going on trying to find what could be the problem. I found some information
that could be close to this :
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/345183
- there seem to be some pdftops updates recently in the Debian package but it
did not solve the problem.
Thanks for any help,
Didrik
