Package: cups
Version: 1.5.2-5
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,


Printer does not finish printing - it gets stuck when few (~ 2-3 ) lines remain.
Printer stops so that feed page button does not work until I turn it off/on,
CUPSD goes to hang in memory taking a huge usage of CPU.

The printer is old matrix Epson LQ-100.
It is connected to USB through LPT-USB adapter.
It uses Epson driver 24.

It worked for years very well up to this time.

Please fix it.
I would be glad to help w/ any other info.
