Printer Problem

Print job prints a page then 30-60 seconds goes by until next page prints. lpstat says job waiting to finish. A cups restart corrects problem. Any idea of the cause?

You provided very few information :slight_smile:

What “printer”, what “driver” and what “kind of job” are you printing? This
does happen always? And what the cups logs are saying?

For instance, I also have problems when printing pages with lots of
graphics, using postscript driver and set a resolution of 600ppp. Printer
stops, it’s very slow or even fails to print at all.

All this using an ethernet laserjet 4050 with 32 MB of ram.
