Hi ALL,
I recently withed from CentOS 3 X server to CentOS 4.5. It works fine other than printers.
there are many printers connected to it. We have configured the commnad
printconf
queue type is Networked UNIX (LPD)
Some times, we will be able to print , But, some times, We will NOT be able to print.
We can ping its ip address. Even, when we can't print, We can ping its ip address.
When we check logs , we see something like this.
[Job 888] Unable to connect to printer; will retry in 30 seconds...: Connection timed out

Hope to hear form you.
We have a CentOS 4.x server at a hosting facility that currently has 73 printers defined on various protocols (socket, ipp, lpd) which can see extensive delays in print jobs. We are seeing the same error in our logs. As a work around for this issue you can do a cupsdisable then a cupsenable for the effected printer which should clear the delay and start it working again, provided that you can ping the printer and the printer itself is not causing the problem. If that does not fix it try doing a service cups restart.
