Description Bat Pul 2010-08-14 09:54:21 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8

System is opensuse 11.3 with all the updates added. Whenever I print a document then the first page is printed fine, but the second page is always blurred and mostly grey or nearly black. Or rather the image of the second page seems to be repeated endlessly on the same page of paper with each repetition shifted downwards slightly. It doesn't matter which driver I use. I tried it with both acroread and with evince. Printing has always worked fine since at least 11.0 till 11.2 as far as I can tell, but not since 11.3final.

Reproducible: Always

I forgot to tell I'm using a Canon i850.

Comment 2 Juergen Weigert 2010-08-14 22:29:44 UTC

I can reproduce this with my Photosmart-C5200-series using a2ps.

Comment 3 Juergen Weigert 2010-08-14 22:38:08 UTC

Created attachment 383012 [details]
truncated 100 dpi B/W scan.

This gives an impression of what I got. 
Bat, is yours similar?

Comment 4 Bat Pul 2010-08-15 11:34:58 UTC

Similar yes, except there is no clearly readable area anywhere.

Canon Pixma MP 210 worked fine in OpenSuse 11.2, but after upgrading to 11.3 it prints solid black after the first page of any document. First page is OK.I have tried reinstalling the printer and the recommended driver Pixma 180 CUPS + Gutenprint v. 5.2.4 en without success.

Comment 6 Gene Neely 2010-08-17 04:09:30 UTC

11.3 a2ps seem to spawn a huge number of processes, an do nothing
when it attempts to print a file with html script tags like
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" Type="Text/Javascript" src="lcmjs.js">
</SCRIPT>
Take these out and it works. Put these two lines in it fails.
Error in delegation. logic and subsequent processing.
ken_yap on form figured it out, I just reported it.
Thanks ken_yap.

reopened for 11.4,
I get garbled pages again with my HP Photosmart C5280.

A simple
# echo >> /etc/cups/cupsd.conf RIPCache 128m
# rccups restart

resolves the issue.
