Binary package hint: cups
When I try to print from http://www.noteflight.com/ (or any other flash-based web app) the printing process fails. Example:
http://www.noteflight.com/scores/view/76215fcd1165b64dccdb5e27f58d6158e2ec7099
Instead, what happens:
the print job is "held," CPU usage jumps, the hard drive thrashes, and the web-app freezes for a time
the print job is listed as "0k"
/var/spool/cups/ fills up with VERY large spool files (~900mb) that fill up the root filesystem and cause secondary problems with "low disk space" errors; the large file size is *independent* of print detail (dpi) settings
print resources are unavailable to web browsers until system restart
the bug appeared sometime in the last couple of CUPS updates. seems like
it is not properly generating a postscript file?
