CUPS 1.6.2 got released on Monday and I have packaged it for Raring. It seems that exactly this problem was addressed in this version of CUPS. See
http://www.cups.org/str.php?L4187 So this should be fixed now in Raring. Please test by undoing the workaround from comment #33 and updating your Raring system so that you get the new CUPS. If this helps please mark the LibreOffice tasks invalid. ** Also affects: cups (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: cups (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: cups (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1020048 Title: after certain time printing to cups stops working Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: New Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: in our institution we are running only printers through a cups server. while freshly opened document prints well, after some time (few minutes) clicking "print file directly" and menu item "print" do not work any more. after close and open again, thing prints correctly. i have checked what exactly is going on in such cases and logs on the cups server don't show any submissions and/or errors so that the thing is obviously stopped at the level of libreoffice.
