Hi,

My printings print fine only if there is minimum to print on the page. If
there are more content in the page, the printing will stop less than half
of the page, only about 1/3 to be more correct.

I believe it is a bug of current cups (and its driver), because the
printer was working fine with Etch. It's been quite a while like that,
ever since I upgrade to squeeze, I was hoping that the problem can
disappear by itself but apparently now.

This is my printer:

$ /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb
direct usb://EPSON/Stylus%20CX1500 "EPSON Stylus CX1500" "EPSON Stylus
CX1500 USB #1" "MFG:EPSON;CMD:ESCPL2,BDC;MDL:Stylus
CX1500;CLS:PRINTER;DES:EPSON Stylus CX1500;"

This is the last several lines from /var/log/cups/error_log:

D [31/Jul/2010:16:13:28 -0400] [Job 26] Gutenprint: Reading 17820 1458
D [31/Jul/2010:16:13:28 -0400] [Job 26] Set job-printer-state-message to

write print data: Input/output error"
D [31/Jul/2010:16:13:28 -0400] [Job 26] printer-state-reasons=none

This is the last several lines from dmesg:

$ dmesg | last
.. . .
[1051394.512944] usblp0: nonzero read bulk status received: -62
[1051394.512999] usblp0: error -62 reading from printer
[1051394.604945] usblp0: nonzero read bulk status received: -62
[1051398.585963] usblp0: nonzero write bulk status received: -62

Any way I can investigate further on this please?

thanks

I used to have that problem printing PDF files, or pictures, or large WORD
docs with lots of graphics. Additional memory helped. This might not be your
problem, but if you don't have more than 1 GB memory, it could be an issue..

No, memory for the computer is not the issue, I have 4G memory for the
computer. Moreover, it used to work fine with Etch on my old PC which has
less than 1 GB memory.

Thanks for your reply any way.
