https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=258790 Summary: Printing to parallel printer hangs X11 Session Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Printing AssignedTo: jsmeix@novell.com ReportedBy: juergen.helmers@charite.de QAContact: jsmeix@novell.com I have an Apple LaserSelect 360 Printer connected via the parallel port to my Desktop machine. I run KDE 3.5.6 "release 41.4" on OpenSuse 10.2 using the default cups printer daemon. The printer is set up to use the gutenberg driver (Apple LaserWriter Select 360 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.0 Simplified) as recommended during setup. All packages installed are up to date. I have used this printer without any problems in many distros, inlcuding Mandrake and Suse 10.0 and 10.1. When I print e.g. a pdf file to the printer and leave the machine alone (no typing or movinf the mouse) 9 in 10 cases the printing is going through with out a hitch. However, when I use the machine and I print at the same time, 8 in 10 cases the mouse freezes and the machine does not respond anymore. I have to do a cold restart as I ca not log in from another machine via ssh. Log files fo X as well as cups do not show anyhting. I have gotten into the habbilt to print as little as possible which is a bit annoying, especially since this is the only printer in the my lab serving 2 more machines... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
