Bug#639325: bug 639325 c2esp 18-5 update
After cups was upgraded to v1.5.0 in testing / Wheezy, I installed c2esp 18-4
and the update to v18-5 came through when I updated today. I re-installed the
printer (Kodak ESP 5250) and it successfully printed a test page.
I then tested it to print a document from AbiWord, and selected resolution of
300x1200 - it didn't print, but it didn't have any error messages, though
the print job status showed: "c2esp: Page 1 Stripe 5". The printer displayed
'printing' but nothing else happened. If I cancel the print job, the
'printing' message doesn't go away on the printer until I hit the power
button and it resets itself, I had to do this several times during the
following tests.
I found a photo to print in Gimp, asked it
to print using Gutenprint and that succeeded. No option for selecting
resolution, though.
I went back to the AbiWord document, selected resolution 600x1200 using black
& white, and this time it printed.
Using resolution 300x1200 color, dithered also works. It appears that
selecting 300x1200 non-dithered or black & white are the only 2 options that
aren't working now. It's probably a conspiracy to force me to use more
ink. :-)
It's basically working, just not with all the options. The original error is
resolved. Let me know if I should file a new bug report and you can close
this one?
Thanks,
Cia W
