Contract printer stopped printing after a printer failure requiring stop and restart
Tammy from KDW said that their contract printer is not printing contracts.
JIm cleared printer gateway
cupsdisable kdw-contract
cupsenable kdw-contract
BUT then it required that the printer be powered off and on.
ALSO I reconfigured cups not to choke on printer errors (stop the spooler.) so as root on the gateway.
cd /etc/cups
vim printers.conf
changed line 16 and 31 from "stop-printer" to "retry-job"
This is OK to do on ever gateway.
