Hi,
I have a Hp laserjet printer connected through a usb backend. I am plagued by
repeated
episodes of failure of the printer to print. It works for a while and then it
spontaneously stops working. I reinstall the driver via the localhost:631 interface
and it prints and a day later it stops working.
D [14/Mar/2010:11:29:05 -0400] [Job 2806] Printer stopped due to backend
errors; please consult the error_log file for details.
Dumb question: what does the error_log file say?
