Description Michal Zugec 2008-06-04 11:26:15 UTC

For Epson Printers there is special initialization sequence send to USB:
http://thor.suse.de/en/sdb/html/jsmeix_print-stcXXXusb.html

But when it hangs, it's not killed (this is bug), it blocks usb port and therefore no usb printers are detected

bash script rewritten into process agent which kills "sending" process after 2 seconds timeout

Comment 2 Michal Zugec 2008-06-04 11:27:59 UTC

fixed in yast2-printer-2.16.33
