Printer Configuration Stalling
I am newbie that had successfully configured my network printer with Ubuntu 9.04. This is to say when I printed, I saw the icon load and a completion message indicate that my print job was successful. However when I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.1 . . I noticed that my print jobs did not complete most of the time and I have not seen the message box in a while.
I added the printer again with success however when I attempted to print a test page I got the error message: There was a problem sending document "test Page" (job 56) to the printer? I noticed that I get this message any time I select the "enabled" box. How to diagnose? |
open up a terminal and run the following command
Code:
lpstat |
I opened a terminal window and entered $ lpstat and $ sudo lpstat . . . nothing?
|
Try lpstat -t
|
Greetings,
This is informative . . how do I locate the printer in question? dlemas@dlemas-CANHR215:~$ lpstat -t scheduler is running system default destination: KONICA-MINOLTA-C351 device for KONICA-MINOLTA-C351: lpd://AHRB-222-Konica350-1.printers.uaf.edu/print KONICA-MINOLTA-C351 accepting requests since Sat 09 Jan 2010 11:45:26 AM AKST printer KONICA-MINOLTA-C351 disabled since Sat 09 Jan 2010 11:45:26 AM AKST - Unable to locate printer 'AHRB-222-Konica350-1.printers.uaf.edu'!
