I won't get a chance to look at this until tonight when I get home, but I ran into an issue today - when I tried to print out a document (tiff) it printed "wide" - pixels were spaced out, and it ran off the page to the right. Height was just fine. I'm running Ubuntu 5.10, using Automatix, with a Brother HL-5140 printer via USB. Tried opening the document in the Gimp, and when it printed, I started getting multiple pages of Postscript spew. Turned off the printer, cleared the print queue, turned it back on, tried printing, nothing came through.

I had to restart the computer for other reasons (kernel package upgrade) so I went ahead and restarted. At this point, the print queue shows as empty, but anything sent to the printer might as well be sent to /dev/null. Any suggestions on what to check? I'd like to learn something about how printing works, so deleting and readding the printer isn't the ideal solution.

Thanks,
Me
