Bug Description
Binary package hint: cups
I tried to print some file using Chromium. I got the message that printing has failed. After diagnosing, I get the message:
/usr/lib/
This is on a Canon iP4500 printer. Printing to the pdf printer still works. Also, a test page does work. So, I guess it has something to do with the printed file.
(which is created using Chromium and GMail:
- start chromium
- go to gmail
- select conversation
- click print in drop down menu)
I noticed a couple of things:
- Printing the file directly from Chromium does not work.
- Printing from Chromium to pdf and printing the created pdf does not work also.
- However, printing from Firefox does work!
- Another webpage is printed fine using Chromium
As the file contains some private information, I cannot attach it here.

Description of problem: 8.70-5. fc12.x86_ 64, the printer only prints black pages with small vertical lines and some patterns on it. After downgrading to ghostscript- 8.70-2. fc12.x86_ 64.rpm, everything works fine again.
After updating to ghostscript-
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 8.70-5. fc12.x86_ 64 4.2-20. fc12.x86_ 64 2.12-1. x86_64 (from http:// www.turboprint. de/)
ghostscript-
cups-1.
turboprint-
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce: 8.70-5. fc12.x86_ 64
1. Update to ghostscript-
2. Print something (e.g. a PDF file or a test page).
Actual results:
The printed page is mostly black with only some vertical stripes and patterns on it.
Expected results:
The page is printed correctly.
Additional info:
I am using turboprint as driver for my Canon Pixma IP 4000. I don't know if this is a bug in ghostscript or an incompatibility with turboprint. Anyhow I could reproduce this behaviour on two Fedora 12 x86_64 machines.
