288619 - Printing continues after printing the first copy

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Core :: Printing: Output, defect)

Description

[Roland]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-DE; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050322 Firefox/1.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-DE; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050322 Firefox/1.0.2

I looked for Job information and tried to print out one copy of some jobs. But
after printing the first copy the printig of a second copy started. The settings
were correct. I did the same with "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US;
rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Netscape/7.1" and it worked perfectly. So I assume there
is no problem with my system. But I have to admit that I am not a long term
Linux user. I print via an US Robotics 8000-02 router with integrated print server. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start website www.machs-richtig.de
2. choose "InfoBase" and click on "WAS?"
3. mark one of these appearing categories
4. choose one of the jobdiscriptions which appear on the right by clicking the "i"
5. Click "Drucken" on the bottom of the site

Actual Results:  
Printing started, printed the first copy and contiuoued printing endless.

Expected Results:  
Print out a single copy and stop printing afterwards.

Roland, to start with, could you open your print dialog (select File->Print) and
verify that the number of copies is set to "1"? When the user changes this
value, the change is remembered and applies to later print jobs until the user
changes it again.

Assuming that isn't the problem, what does firefox display as the name of the
printer? Is it "PostScript/something" or something else?

To answer your questions:
a) Yes, the number of copies was set to 1. I checked that immediately.
b) Firefox displays "PostScript/normal" as the name of the printer, where
"normal" is one of the printers in CUPS.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
