From: Alan Chandler on 2 Dec 2009 07:50 I have just tried to move my printer from an old lenny system to my desktop (running sid). I seem to have created a printer OK, but an attempt to print a test page fails. The view error log function on the cups web page shows the following (I have tried to pickup key parts from a VERY LONG file - debug is on at the moment) D [02/Dec/2009:12:32:10 +0000] [Job 104] Running /usr/bin/pdftops -level2 -origpagesizes /var/spool/cups/tmp/pdftops.ZYEAkF - D [02/Dec/2009:12:32:10 +0000] [Job 104] Running pstops '104' 'root' 'Test Page' '1' ' job-uuid=urn:uuid:a4a29c47-6877-33a9-5cd4-02a51331b57c job-originating-host-name=localhost' D [02/Dec/2009:12:32:10 +0000] [Job 104] Page size: A4 D [02/Dec/2009:12:32:10 +0000] [Job 104] Error: May not be a PDF file (continuing anyway) D [02/Dec/2009:12:32:10 +0000] [Job 104] Error: PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table...

From: Ben Pearre on 2 Dec 2009 20:30 Hi! I was seeing that yesterday (cups 1.4.2-3, libpoppler 0.12.2-2) as well. Today Debian unstable is shipping cups 1.4.2-4 and my printing works again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

My printer acted as though it was going to print something, the ready light flashed for a while (as though something is being downloaded to it) and then it stopped and nothing came out. HOWEVER, I then changed the printer.ppd file from the one I had been using on my lenny system, and printing seemed to work perfectly. So it looks like there is something wrong with the .ppd file. -- Alan Chandler http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
