Description O. William McClung 2010-07-05 20:10:49 UTC
When I print to an attached printer, chromium fails to print. The printer light does not flash to indicate it was receiving bytes. By contrast, firefox prints normally. www-client/chromium-bin-5.0.376.0_p44320 has the same non-printing behavior.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to reproduce:
1. Choose "Print" from the chromium menu.
2. Choose the attached printer from the resulting pop-up
3. Press the "Print" button the pop-up

Actual results:
Printer light fails to flash and printer does not receive a print job.

Expected results:
Printer would print the displayed chromium Web page.

Note possibly related bug #309901.

According to https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6349099.html#6349099 updating to cups-1.4.4 fixes the problem. I'd appreciate it if someone could confirm this.

It does fix the problem. See http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=285166 for some cups-1.4.4 idiosyncrasies.

Comment 3 Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-13 14:53:46 UTC
Thanks for confirming this worked. Let's keep the bug open for a while so I can update the dependency.
Comment 4 Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-17 19:49:19 UTC
Thanks for the report. Fixed in dev channel releases only because cups-1.4.4 is still unstable.
