[Bug 628233] New: CUPS default "RIPCache 8m" causes various kind of printout failures
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=628233 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=628233#c0 Summary: CUPS default "RIPCache 8m" causes various kind of printout failures Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEEDINFO Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Printing AssignedTo: jsmeix@novell.com ReportedBy: jsmeix@novell.com QAContact: jsmeix@novell.com CC: roger.larsson@e-gatan.se, manchette@free.fr InfoProvider: coolo@novell.com Found By: Development Blocker: --- By default CUPS has only 8 MB RIPCache, see "RIPCache" at http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.4/ref-cupsd-conf.html -------------------------------------------------------------------- The RIPCache directive sets the size of the memory cache used by Raster Image Processor ("RIP") filters such as imagetoraster and pstoraster ... The default cache size is "8m", or 8 megabytes. -------------------------------------------------------------------- This default exits since a long time and did not cause any issue. But since a few month more and more weird issues regarding printout failures happen because of this low default. When RIPs need much more memory, they may simply fail so that there is no printout at all, see bug #625611 or https://answers.launchpad.net/hplip/+question/104395 When RIPs need a bit more memory, they may not fail but produce broken output which is even worse because it wastes paper and toner/ink for nonsense printouts, see attachment #380232 from https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=603131#c25 CUPS upstream agrees to increase the default RIPCache, see http://www.cups.org/str.php?L3535 There is also a discussion whether or not to have a fixed RIPCache size by default at all, see the thread about "Sense and nonsense of RIPCache" in the cups.general newsgroup/forum on http://www.cups.org/newsgroups.php?gcups.general+Q"Sense+and+nonsense+of+RIPCache" For the current openSUSE 11.3 I would like to provide a CUPS packages update where the one line RIPCache 128m is added to /etc/cups/cupsd.conf (by default there is no "RIPCache" line in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf which means CUPS' built-in default cache size is used). I think to make sure those line gets added in any case to the user's /etc/cups/cupsd.conf it is best to add it via "sed" magic via RPM post-install script if there is not yet a "RIPCache" line in the user's /etc/cups/cupsd.conf (e.g. when a server admin had already specified his specific RIPCache value). 128 MB is half of the minimum required RAM (256 MB) and a quater of the recommended RAM (512 MB) for a system where openSUSE is to be installed (according to what I found on a openSUSE 11.2 box) so that "RIPCache 128m" should be a safe default which can be set on any user's system. Coolo, do you agree that I do such a CUPS packages update? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If the user left it at default, it will get the new default, otherwise he has to manually merge. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

"RIPCache 1024m" matches to this mail on the gimp-print-devel list: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=79617DCE-FA3D-462C-8... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- There has been some recent discussion on this - recent versions of Ghostscript changed the internal banding API but the CUPS raster "device" was never updated, leading to issues with the default RIPCache setting of 8MB. A quick workaround is to set the cupsd.conf RIPCache value to something larger, e.g. 1024MB: cupsctl RIPCache=1024MB -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This also explains that the root cause is not in CUPS but a non-backward-compatible change within Ghostscript. See comment #16: ------------------------------------------------------------------- cups-1.4.4-set_default_RIPCache_128m.patch enlarges the CUPS upstream default RIPCache from 8m to 128m to avoid various kind of printout failures. ------------------------------------------------------------------- i.e. the changed default RIPCache does of course not solve any kind of printout failures but it can avoid some printout failures. See comment #0 what I wrote in http://www.cups.org/str.php?L3535 ------------------------------------------------------------------ I don't like the idea to let the default RIPCache size depend on the amount of main memory on a particular machine because the RIPCache size must match to the printing requirements and those are independent of the main memory. (Actually it is the other way round: The main memory must be sufficient for the printing requirements.) In other words: I think that printing should work the same on a 256MB main memory machine and on a 2GB main memory machine. The 256MB main memory machine is probably already under full load when processing one single large format photo print job but for each job it should work the same. ------------------------------------------------------------------ and where "jimjensen" wrote on 11:48 Mar 24, 2010 ------------------------------------------------------------------ A RIPCache value of 32m is adequate for printing 13" x 19" (according to my test on a HP B8550), ------------------------------------------------------------------ and what I wrote directly in comment #0 ---------------------------------------------------------------- 128 MB is half of the minimum required RAM (256 MB) and a quater of the recommended RAM (512 MB) for a system where openSUSE is to be installed (according to what I found on a openSUSE 11.2 box) so that "RIPCache 128m" should be a safe default which can be set on any user's system. ---------------------------------------------------------------- A default "RIPCache 1024m" (i.e. 1 GB!) is totally impossible. Summary: The issue is fixed as good as currently possible in CUPS. In some cases the current default RIPCache value of 128m is still insufficient (probably only when printing at high resolution with the Gutenprint driver) so that you may have to specify much more.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=628233 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=628233#c28 --- Comment #28 from Johannes Meixner <jsmeix@novell.com> 2010-10-21 09:10:32 UTC --- First of all: Many thanks for your feedback in comment #23. The information that sometimes even up to 1GB RIPCache is actually needed was new to me and helped us a lot! Regarding your attachment #396070: On my openSUSE 11.3 x86_64 system with Ghostscript 8.70 I can anticipate what causes your attachment #396070 (only "rpm -e --test" shows all requirements and their actual reason): ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- # rpm -e --test ghostscript-library-8.70 .. libgs.so.8()(64bit) is needed by ... libspectre1-0.2.4-3.1.x86_64 libgs.so.8()(64bit) is needed by ... foomatic-filters-4.0.1-6.1.x86_64 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This means that libspectre1 (i.e. /usr/lib64/libspectre.so.1.1.4) and foomatic-filters (i.e. /usr/bin/foomatic-rip) are linked with libgs.so.8 but libgs.so.8 is not provided by Ghostscript 9.00 so that neither /usr/bin/foomatic-rip nor /usr/lib64/libspectre.so.1.1.4 would still work if ghostscript-library-8.70 was replaced by ghostscript-library-9.00 As a consequence the installer would suggest to remove libspectre1 and foomatic-filters. But then the subsequent consequences would be: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- # rpm -e --test libspectre1-0.2.4 .. libspectre.so.1()(64bit) is needed by ... okular-4.4.4-1.4.x86_64 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- and ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- # rpm -e --test foomatic-filters-4.0.1 .. foomatic-filters is needed by ... cups-drivers-1.3.9-35.1.x86_64 foomatic-filters is needed by ... cups-1.4.4-4.1.x86_64 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- As a final result the installer would suggest to remove libspectre1, foomatic-filters, okular, cups-drivers, and cups. This means that at least currently you cannot simply install ghostscript-library-9.00 from its openSUSE development project "Printing:ghostscript" into your usual openSUSE 11.3 system and still have a normal usable openSUSE 11.3 system - except you actually want to do development and you know what you do. It is no bug when there are issues with packages from openSUSE development projects, in particular have a look at https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=Printing ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The "Printing" project may contain new, upcoming software. Therefore the packages in the "Printing" project might neither be in a stable state nor fit well into currently installed systems. Have this in mind if you think about to install packages from the "Printing" project into your currently running system. .. The packages in the "Printing" project are only for testing, without any guarantee or warranty, and without any support. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- In the end: Normal openSUSE 11.3 users should do what is described on http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Printing how to work around "Current Issues". By the way: This bug is about the "CUPS default RIPCache". If there are issues with Ghostscript, I suggest to file a new separated bug report so that we could better keep separated issues actually separated. -- 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.

Reopened for 11.4, I get garbled pages again with my HP Photosmart C5280.
A simple # echo >> /etc/cups/cupsd.conf RIPCache 128m # rccups restart
fixes the issue again.
This does not work for me. I get "access denied" even when I log in as root. Cannot access cupsd.conf in the file system either. I have OpenSuse 11.4 and Canon Pixma MP210. This problem has been bugging me since OPensuse 11.3 came in and no solution has worked so far. This seems very strange as printing worked perfectly with 11.2. Definitely a backward step somewhere!

My problem was that, for some still unknown reason, I could not access cupsd.conf to change the RIPCache value. However, I was told to do it thus: "Another option is to use Cups web interface to edit the file. Enter "http://localhost:631" in the browser. Select the "Administration" tab. Click the "Edit Configuration File". After making your changes, click save. You will be asked for the username and password. Enter the user "root" and the root password to save your changes." This worked fine, I changed the value from 128m to 1280m, and my printing is now at last working properly. So this problem is now FIXED for me also! -- 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.

Jeremy independant of this cups issue, you should have root access on your machine, if you want to be your own admin. Without root, you cannot even add security updates. -- 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.

What I don't seem to be able to do is access cupsd.conf or any of the other files marked not accessible. I don't usually use commands so this has only been a serious problem since this CUPS business cropped up. Trying some of the other suggestions for commands given above, even after going into root, I have just got the message 'no such file' or words to that effect. Anyway, my printing is now working beautifully which is great. -- 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.
