On July 31 I updated my system and cups-1.7.4-1-x86_64, cups-filters-1.0.54-1-x86_64 and libcups-1.7.4-1-x86_64 got updated to cups-1.7.5-1-x86_64, cups-filters-1.0.55-1-x86_64 and libcups-1.7.5-1-x86_64, respectively. I just tried to print something, but instead of the page that should be printed, my printer, a Samsung ML-2165, printed:
INTERNAL ERROR - Incomplete Session by time out
POSITION: 0x9eee (40686)
SYSTEM: h6fw_5.53/os_hook
LINE: 1353
VERSION: SPL 5.53 07-22-2011I'm using the Samsung ML-2160 printer driver, which worked flawlessly until recently (note that in the beginning I had problems printing more than 1 job without resetting the printer, as stated in the comments, but this issue magically went away).
I decided to set LogLevel to 'debug' and now my /var/log/cups/error_log reads:

Notice the failure of the RenderCGI assertion, likely causing the crash of rastertosamsungspl. I searched on the net, but didn't find a solution. However, I remembered that the CUPS packages were updated a few days ago and I manually downgraded to the previous releases. This solved the problem for now.
Can someone see what's changed in the last release, especially regarding communication with a printer driver?
