Bug#645877: /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/printer/Brother-HL-2070N.xml: False out-of-paper report with BrotherHL2070N



Package: foomatic-db
Version: 20110831-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/printer/Brother-HL-2070N.xml

Hi there!

First of all, my grasp of how printing under Linux actually works
isn't that good, so apologies in advance for any silliness below.

I have a Brother HL 2070N printer.  My printer has paper and prints
just fine.

Now, if I go to (in GNOME) System / Administration / Printers,
right-click my printer, click Properties, click Ink / Toner levels I
get: "Printer "lp" is out of paper".

All other ways I've been able to come up with also say the printer is
out of paper, even though it isn't.

I would like [the printing system] to report out-of-paper only when
the printer is actually out of paper.

What information do you need to be able to debug this?

  Regards //Johan
