Bug #1694

Updated by tuxillo about 9 years ago

Hi, 

 

 Does anybody had some success with CUPS, using the parallel backend on 
 
 /dev/lpt0? Mine is stalled and I could'nt get it to work, no mather what. 

 

 I'm getting "Printing page 1, 11%", with this remaining indefinitly on: 

 

 lp              62249    0.0    2.6 30576 13264    ??    IL     10:45AM     0:00.49 
 
 /usr/pkg/bin/gs -dQUIET -dDEBUG -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH 
 
 -dNOMEDIAATTRS -sDEVICE=cups -sstdout=%stderr -sOUTPUTFILE=%stdout -c -f 
 
 -_ (gsc) 
 
 lp              62250    0.0    1.5 12840 7968    ??    IL     10:45AM     0:00.53

 I posted this on the CUPS forum, but I suspect that this is specific to 
 
 DFBSD. It looks like libexec/parallel is stalled waiting in a select 
 
 call, but I'm not sure yet. I've been working hours on this one. 

 

 If anyone have some information that could help. I can use lpd, but I 
 
 appreciate the fact that CUPS can be manage from a web page. This is 
 
 more intuitive for ordinary users when something goes wrong than opening 
 
 a telnet and using lpq and lprm commands. 

 

 Thanks for any help.
