Ubuntu USB printers have stopped working
Posted: Sun Nov 26, 2006 12:14 pm
Recently I have added a network laser printer with a custom ppd (a dell 3110cn) this works, but all my turboprinter installed printers have stopped working. The only immediate clue that I can see is the contents of the the log file:-

What does this mean? (BTW don't get hung up on the A3 printer as my Canon IP4000 does exactly the same thing, but with A4)
