I could not copy/paste that notice and had to manually copy it from
system-config-printer, but I assure you the semicolon is there! I do
not know if it appears in the error message on screen. I just
printed two pages and there was no error message?
The above command produces:
[bobg@box9 ~]$ python <<"EOF"
import cups
c=cups.Connection()
print [x['printer-state-reasons'] for x in
c.getPrinters().values()]
EOF
[[u'none'],
[u';marker-supply-low-warning'], [u'none']]
This is one of several printers on my wireless lan. It should not be
low on toner although I am not certain that it isn't indicating so
prematurely. I usually fill my own cartridges but this happens to be
one I bought new several months ago. This particular printer has
only a USB input and uses an D-Link interface to Ethernet connected
to a gigabit switch.
Thanks to all.
