On first print job, enabled state is reset before job is complete and job hangs

[Gerry Baumgartner]

Gutsy, i386 (upgraded from Fiesty), Printer=HP3030 Laser Jet.

Before printing, the "Policies" tab shows the Enabled state checked (checked as well are Accepting Jobs and Shared).

Only about 1/3 of the first page is printed, then printing stops. The queue lists the job as pending. Going back to the "Policies" tab, the Enabled state is no longer checked. Checking it will resume printing and the entire job will complete.

Can you replace the file

/usr/lib/hal/scripts/hal_lpadmin

by the attached one? Make sure that the file stays executable after replacing it. Do

sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/hal/scripts/hal_lpadmin

if needed.

Does this solve your problem?

[Gerry Baumgartner (gabaumgartner)]

Yes, this solved the problem. Thanks! Will this officially be made available in Gutsy?

Fixed in Hardy.
