https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=412006 User jsmeix@novell.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=412006#c2 --- Comment #2 from Johannes Meixner 2008-07-26 06:42:32 MDT --- As far as I remember, Mike is right: The printing functionality in the Javascript in DHL's PDF or wherever else it is implemented, fails but there was a message about printing to "unknown" or something like this. After some useless trials I had the idea that the printing functionality may fail to determine an existing print queue and use "unknown" as fallback queue name. Therefore we set up a queue with name "unknown" (or whatever the word in the test-printing message is) and now the printing functionality worked and it printed via this queue. This indicates that the real bugs are that the printing functionality fails to determine an existing print queue and additionally it does not let the user choose a queue at all (the user may not want to print via the default queue). Because for debugging we liked to inspect the printing output so that we set up the "unknown" queue to print into a PostScript file by using the /usr/share/cups/model/Postscript.ppd.gz and the DeviceURI file:/tmp/undefined.ps (plus "FileDevice Yes"). As a side effect this shows that all this "print at most once" via Javascript (or whatever else PDF magic) in DHL's PDF is nonsense at all because now we have a PostScript file which we can print to a real printer as often as we like. As far as I understand the issue, the bug is probably in DHL's PDF (in its embedded Javascript or whatever else embedded PDF magic). Perhaps the bug might be in the Javascript stuff in acroread? Perhaps the bug is even in the Java base software? There are known issues in Java with CUPS, see in particular bug #213362 "Printing From Java Applications Fails With 'No print service found.'" and the workaround in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=213362#c6 (mail from the CUPS main author): ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 07 Dec 2006 07:11:04 -0500 From: Michael Sweet To: Subject: Re: [cups.general] Java printing with CUPS .. I've actually had some discussions with Sun the other day; the issue is that the default server address in CUPS 1.2 is a domain socket, which Java does not support. They will be implementing a fix for that (fallback to localhost IP socket), but in the meantime you can create/update an /etc/cups/client.conf file containing: ServerName localhost to force your Java applications to use IP instead of domain sockets. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please test if this workaround solves also this DHL PDF issue. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This would help us in reproducing the issue at our end. Also can you specify the url where i can print the online stamps.

The cheapest package type costs 3.90€. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
