EBS R12 cannot print DPF - Archita Jartin - 07-28-2014

Hi Everyone,
We are on Oracle eBusiness version R12.1.3 on Oracle Linux (5.2 64 bit) and CUPS print server

and for PDF printing we are not using Pasta.. but using argument command to use acroread to print these output files to a postscript printer...like below ...

cat $PROFILES$.FILENAME | /usr/local/bin/acrobat4/bin/acroread -toPostScript -shrink | lp -c -d$PROFILES$PRINTER -n$PROFILES$.CONC_COPIES

The Request printing PDF trough this driver is runing succefly and we can preview the PDF, but not sending the output to the printer and giving lp error in the end of the log as you see below

lp: Error - stdin is empty, so no job has been sent


Even I run the command from the OS gives the exact same result
$ cat 7522411.out | acroread -toPostScript | lp -d it
lp: Error - stdin is empty, so no job has been sent.

I belive that it is OS issue not EBS ...i have try to resolve it but i didn't find any solution...

Please help

I have found similar issue on Oracle Community site, check if this can help you out, otherwise talk to your sys admin team to fix printer issue on the operating system
