Priority: medium
Bug ID: 77776
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: regression: "could not start printer" when printing to
remote cups server
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.3.3 release
Component: Printing and PDF export
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
With LibreOffice 4.2.3, when printing to a remote cupsd over a TCP connection,
the error message "Could not start printer. Please check your printer
configuration." is displayed, but the document is still printed. This did not
happen in 4.2.4. Verified with 4.2.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04, and with 4.2.4
RC1 on Ubuntu 14.04.
I think this happens to the first job sent on a particular TCP connection. If I
send two jobs in a row, I see the message on the first job but not the second.
If I wait for the CUPS connection timeout to elapse (default 5 minutes) and
send another job, I see the message again.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Configure CUPS to use a TCP connection: mkdir ~/.cups ; echo 'ServerName
127.0.0.1' >> ~/.cups/client.conf
2. Open LibreOffice and print a document.
Current behavior:
An error message is displayed. However,the document is still printed.
Expected behavior:
No error message should appear.
