[lug] RHEL6 print server

[Steve A Hart]

Just curious if anyone has seen strangeness like this before.

I'm using a RHEL6 server to handle all print jobs from numerous Linux, 
Mac, and Windows systems to my HP Color Laserjet 4700printer.  All seems 
well and jobs print normally for the most part. I'm seeing the following 
strange behavior:

- RHEL6 client sends a normal sized PDF file to be printed.
- The RHEL6 server CUPS setup sees the job and passes it to the 
printer.  The CUPS interface reports the job as completed and the 
printer as ready.
- The printer itself is ready but shows no sign that the job was ever sent.

Test prints from the same Linux client print fine and not all PDF's 
behave this way.  Some print fine, others do not.  Another note is 
thatwhen you take the same PDF file in the above setup and move it to a 
Mac or windows system, it prints fine through the same RHEL6 CUPS server.

Just curious if anyone has seen similar behavior before.

Cheers

Steve
