Bug#760415: cups: Need to "reset" the printer between 2 jobs (very similar to STR #3964)"
Package: cups
Version: 1.7.5-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
the symptoms are exactly the same as in the bug description of STR #3964
(upstream: http://www.cups.org/str.php?L3964 )
If I try to print twice the same simple file (for example a single page ps
file), the first job prints perfectly. For the 2nd one, however, the first page
contains a text starting with:
PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = PCLXL ...
and the printer prints garbage on the subsequent pages.
The solution, for the moment, is to unplug the usb cable, flush the printer
memory, re-plug and submit my job again.
As stated in the bug report for #3964, a fix was apparently provided when
resolving STR #3965 in 2012.
It looks like it is not resolved in my case.
the printer I use is an OKI B4300
Thanks for your help,
Dimitri
