2010-12-20 15:38:35 Milan Bouchet-Valat description Binary package hint: cups When printing fails for some reason ("backend failed" message), printer is paused, and won't resume automatically, even after a reboot. This is silly because there's no notice about that in the print dialog nor in the print queue: you have to go to System->Administration->Printing, and be very clever to understand how to re-enable the printer. In most cases, the fact that something failed doesn't mean other documents won't print, and generally users will figure the error better by themselves than with a paused printer. This is in Lucid 1.4.3-1ubuntu1.3 (not sure in Maverick).
