printer hangs on jobs.

[Brent Geers]

Binary package hint: cups

I'm printing to a Brother 5250 hard wired to my computer. Sometimes the job will print right away. Other times, it'll print a page of gibberish of the sort like this:

ERROR NAME:
             syntaxerror
COMMAND;
OPERAND STACK;
             266
             --arraytype--
             --arraytype--
             --arraytype--

Other times, the printer will activate but nothing will print. I mostly print Openoffice 3.2 documents, but I've also tried PDFs in both Adobe and Evince. I am using Ubuntu 10.04.

Can you attach the files which do not print and also follow the instructions of the sections "CUPS error_log" and "Capturing print job data" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems?
