Subject: Parport fifo stuck when printer out of paper
Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2001 17:54:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3ADC672E.5F97BAA9@delusion.de> (raw)


Hi,

When my parport printer runs out of paper and there are still
pending print jobs, the kernel will constantly log the following:

DMA write timed out
parport0: FIFO is stuck
parport0: BUSY timeout (1) in compat_write_block_pio

To me it's pretty pointless to fill dmesg and the logfiles with
this rather harmless but still annoying info.

Can this possibly be handled in a nicer way, so that the kernel
keeps quiet about such minor printer issues?

Regards,
Udo.
