Hi,Michael,

Thanks for your response.

I reproduced it with Postscript printer also, and that is happened with USB port only. I think maybe USB backend won't handle error recovery well for data send failed, but I could not make sure that is USB backend issue or USB driver issue.

How do you think about it?

Thanks!
Horky
