Bug Description

Hello,

Some Fedora users report [1] that hpcups driver from hplip-3.11.7 and hplip-3.11.10 doesn't respect top margins and that 3.11.5 is ok.
Affected printers: LaserJet P2055dn, LaserJet p4014dn, LaserJet P4015, LaserJet m1522nf MFP, LaserJet 1150, LaserJet 2035n, LaserJet 3030, LaserJet 4350dtn

Diff of hpcups in 3.11.5 and 3.11.7 has shown that only HPCupsFilter::isBlankRaster() function was changed.
I also found this note in changelog [2] to 3.11.7
- Condition to check the blankraster for k plane is added for top and bottom clipping issue with HP LaserJet Professional m1212nf MFP

Some users confirmed [1] that reverting (see attached patch) that change fixes the problem.
Can you please look at this problem ?
Thank you.

Description of problem:
When I try to print any document, using any program, the top margins are not respected. For example, a document that is supposed to have the top margin start at about 68 pixels actually prints at about 17 pixels.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
hplip-3.11.7-2.fc14.x86_64
hplip-libs-3.11.7-2.fc14.x86_64
hplip-common-3.11.7-2.fc14.x86_64
hplip-gui-3.11.7-2.fc14.x86_64

How reproducible:
All attempted print jobs print incorrectly.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Print a document.
2.
3.

Actual results:
A 68 pixel margin magically becomes a 17 pixel margin

Expected results:
I should be able to print any document that I choose and have the margins be where they were when I created the document.

Additional info: If I downgrade to the following, printing always works exactly as it should:
hplip-3.10.6-3.fc14.x86_64
hplip-libs-3.10.6-3.fc14.x86_64
hplip-common-3.10.6-3.fc14.x86_64
hplip-gui-3.10.6-3.fc14.x86_64

Also, the output of "diff -ur etc-cups-ppd-working /etc/cups/ppd/HP-LaserJet-P2055dn.ppd" reads as follows:

steve@localhost ~$ diff -ur etc-cups-ppd-working /etc/cups/ppd/HP-LaserJet-P2055dn.ppd

So, margins always print as expected with hplip-3.10.6-3.fc14.x86_64 but always print incorrectly with hplip-3.11.7-2.fc14.x86_64

That's 22 builds, of 7 different versions. Could you please try each of the builds that I've marked with '*' above? I'm trying to narrow down which version broke this for you.

To try one of the builds, download the relevant packages for your architecture, and run 'yum downgrade FILES...' replacing FILES... with the full list of the filenames you've downloaded. ("Relevant packages" because you only need the ones you've already got installed... if you don't have libsane-hpaio installed, don't download that package for example.)

Let me know how you get on.

So, it looks like 3.11.7-1 and 3.11.7-2 (the current update) are the only ones that cause this problem.

If there are any more builds that you want me to try, let me know.

If you try adding blank lines at the beginning of the document, they are wiped out too.

If I print from the F14 to a printer connected to an F13 box using hplip-3.11.5-1.fc13.i686 through the network, it prints well.

Last comment was a little premature. If I downgrade to 3.11.5-5, the top margin prints correctly again.

So far we know that downgrade 3.11.7 -> 3.11.5 or change hpcups->hpijs fixes (except for comment #19) the problem. That means that the problem was introduced in hpcups driver between 3.11.5 and 3.11.7. Diff has shown that there was only one change in hpcups driver. So I've done a F16 scratch-build [1] with this change reverted and it would be great if some of you could test it to confirm/disprove that this change has been causing the problem.

Could you actually also try the hplip-3.11.10-7.fc16 from stable repository to make sure the problem is still there. The "yum downgrade 'hplip*' hpijs" should do the trick when you are already using my hplip-3.11.10-8.fc16 build.

Yes, after downgrading to hplip-3.11.10-7.fc16 the problem with hpcups comes back.

Hi Jiri,

Thanks for reporting this bug here. Will look into it and get back to you on the same.
Can you please let us know in which version of Fedora you are able to see this bug. Post us the "hp-check -t" output

Also i would request you to provide some debug information.

Please follow the below steps to provide the same

1.Open the file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf in write permissions.
$su -c "vim /etc/cups/cupsd.conf"
 Change LogLevel warn to LogLevel debug and below that line add hpLogLevel 15.

2. Restart the cups
$su -c "/etc/init.d/cups restart"

3. Empty the cups error_log file and syslog file

su -c "cat /dev/null > /var/log/messages"
su -c "cat /dev/null > /var/log/cups/error_log"

4. Print a test page.

5.Attach us the /var/log/messages and /var/log/cups/error_log file.

6. In /tmp folder you will find files with name starting with hpcups like, hpcupsfilterc_1.bmp, hpcupsfilterk_1. bmp, hpcups_jobX.out.

Can you please attach those files too.

Let me know if you have any trouble in getting the logs.

Thanks & Regards,
Goutam Kodu

Also please post us the "hp-check -t" command output.

I was not able to get hp-testpage to print (it complained about not being able to find a printer and it would not accept the URI that hp-probe determined) so I was not able to provide any related files.

It is possible that this problem is related to duplex printing. When I print the cups test page with duplex printing turned off, the test page prints fine. When I turn duplex printing on, the test page is printed on both sides of the page with one side having the top margin cut off and the other having the bottom margin cut off.

Hi Dan,

Can you check the same using the Postscript PPD file for this printer. To do the same follow the below steps.

1. Delete the existing print queue for this printer in "system-config-printer"
2. Run hp-setup command from terminal and by default it will choose the hpcups PPD . You need to browse to the path and choose this PPD file /usr/share/ppd/HP/hp-laserjet_p2055dn-ps.ppd.gz while configuring the device.
3. After configuring your printer perform the duplex job.

Let us know if this works.

Thanks,
Goutam Kodu

Antanas, please do not change the bug status without giving any reason to do so. The Oneiric task is for the SRU and an SRU is going through a defined testing procedure. There will be posted a comment when the testing period is started and then everyone suffering the problem is invited to test the fixed package. After one week the testing period ends and if we get reports that the package solves the problem and no reports that it introduces regressions, we move the package into the official updates. Then and only then the Oneiric task is considered fixed.

Sorry, I don't have access to the affected printer anymore so I cannot test it at the moment.

Yep, I'm looking into the repository now...
What is the name of the proposed package? cups-ppdc perhaps?
Thanks,

DottorBartolo, the best way to check it is to add the oneiric-proposed repository to your software sources as described on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed and then do a full system update. If you want to avoid a full system update due to a slow connection or to not install other proposed packages, the actual fix is in the hplip-cups binary package, but probably you will have to replace also hplip, hplip-data, hplip-doc, and libhpmud0 due to dependencies. (will be done automatically if you update hplip-cups with the software center or with the command "sudo apt-get install hplip-cups").

I had the same problem with an HP LaserJet P4015n; any whitespace at the top of the page was removed, and the page content shifted up. The fix in oneiric-proposed worked for me. Thanks!

It seems like this didn't help with my Samsung CLP-310N. I'm using the Samsung Unified Printer Driver, since the foo2qpdl driver gives unusable results as printouts.
The cutoff of the top margin affects monochrome as well as colour prints.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 and the installed hplip package version is 3.11.7-1ubuntu3.1...

Please let me know if I can provide any additional information that helps solving this issue. If I just missed the right patch, please give me a little hint :)
