A hint in NG de.comp....linux was wonderful: timeout! CUPS has
a KeepAliveTimeout in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf , default 60sec.
The digitus DN-11002 seems not to send signals "I'm printing .."
to the PC so that every minute the job is requeued. I increased
to 500sec a two tests with 20 pages were successfull so far.
Perhaps some specialists here can explain this phanomen.
