Description Rod Blocksidge 2007-02-01 15:45:47 UTC

Version:           0.1 (using KDE 3.5.5, Kubuntu (edgy) 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu3)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.17-10-generic

USB printer (Olympus P-11) seems correctly installed, and when either a test print, or a print from an application such as GIMP2.2 is initiated, then that job is shown on KjobViewer..print jobs for Olympus P-11. The state is always..processing..but that is a far as it gets. The job is never sent to the printer, and the job will stay forever ..processing..The printer is installed under CUPS and is a listed printer. The recommended driver is CUPS+Gutenprint5.0.0. and this is installed. Installation is apparently faultless. The printer is shown as installed. The Driver and all other access is available. No error messages are given. All prints reach the print queue and are processing..but never print. The printer is listed in localhost. The KDE print system lists the printer with the correct URI as detected when installed. This is installed as a local USB printer. I have another printer, HP990cxi on parallel port installed in the same way, and this works perfectly. The Olympus P-11..never. The P-11 is a photo printer only of the dye sub variety.

Can you successfully print items using lpr from the command line? If not, then the problem is with your configuratio, not kde

Comment 2 Cristian Tibirna 2007-02-02 00:19:09 UTC

Go to http://localhost:631 and click on the Printers link. Your printers 
should appear in this page. Click on Print Test Page. If the test page 
doesn't get printed, then the problem is with your configuration. Try then to 
look into /var/log/cups/error_log for a hint to the problem. In this case, 
then please close this bug report as it doesn't have to do with KDE but with 
your configuration.

It seems as if it is not KDE causing this problem, but some sort of configuration issue, IF it is, I am at a loss to know what to do about it. Log files give no clue. Windows printing for this printer!
