Having a strange USB print problem with my new Squeeze
upgrade. I have an HP Laserjet
4M+ connected to my computer on a USB port. (On the printer, the USB
cable goes into a USB-to-parallel adaptor on the printer's parallel
port). It worked fine with Wheezy. Now, I can only print one job. After
that I have to unplug the USB cable and plug it back in before the next
job will print, and I have to do it every time I want to print!
Please let me know what I should try doing. I have been doing a lot of searches and it seems that some people have it but there does not seem to be any answers. Some of the problems go back to 2005, so this must be a recurring error. When I look at the CUPS web interface, it always says that there's a percentage of the job that's printed, but not the whole thing. Or other times it says "Rendering completed": HP_LaserJet_4_Plus-65 Unknown Withheld 37k 1 processing since Tue 02 Jul 2013 01:21:04 PM EDT "Rendering completed" The status of the printer is "(Processing, Accepting Jobs, Not Shared)" # lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 011: ID 0557:2006 ATEN International Co., Ltd UC-1284B Printer Port # Now at this point I can unplug the USB cable, plug back in, and the status changes: "(Paused, Accepting Jobs, Not Shared)" I click "Resume printer" on the web interface, and away she goes.
