Comment 10 raal 2015-01-21 06:49:41 UTC
No problem with print under Linux and Windows on two different printers.

Try to upgrade printer drivers, http://www.sharp-cee.com/cps/rde/xchg/scee/hs.xsl/-/html/product_details.htm?product=AR5618
Comment 11 Buovjaga 2015-02-19 13:22:11 UTC
Witalik: do you have the latest printer drivers from raal's link? Driver date 10.07.2013?

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED, if the problem persists. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away after driver update.
