CUPS renders but hangs with Compaq IJ750
Hello list,
I've got a Comapaq (Lexmark) IJ750 (parallel-port inkjet), and am
trying to get it to print with cupsys. If I use lpr to print a
postscript file, the command returns successfully, the cupsys error
log doesn't show any major problems, but the printer just sits
there. Nothing happens.
The kernel has no trouble detecting the printer:
blue:/home/joe# cat /proc/sys/dev/parport/parport0/autoprobe
CLASS:PRINTER;
MODEL:Inkjet 4099;
MANUFACTURER:Lexmark;
DESCRIPTION:Inkjet 4099;
COMMAND SET:LOWENDLEXCPD;
And the job shows up in the queue:
blue:/home/joe# lpq
ij is ready and printing
Rank Owner Job File(s) Total Size
active root 18 test.ps 12288 bytes
I've noticed one unusual point: the process table shows entries
corresponding to print jobs, even ones that I've removed with lprm:
blue:/home/joe# ps auxw|grep parallel
root 657 0.0 0.4 2088 516 ? S 07:26 0:00 parallel:/dev/lp0 16 root sig.ps 1
root 693 0.0 0.4 2088 512 ? S 07:27 0:00 parallel:/dev/lp0 18 root test.ps 1
root 721 0.0 0.3 1292 424 pts/0 R 07:34 0:00 grep parallel
(sig.ps was lprmed earlier)
Is there some way I can force cupsys to tell me where the job is
wedged? I suspect something's preventing the data from reaching the
printer, but I'm not sure how to diagnose it. Any suggestions would be
appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
--Joe
