I encounter error 
“Cannot open port 
device file” when 
printing a document. Please avoid changing the print job 
parameters (via LPR GUI, for example) 
while a print job is in progress. Known 
versions of CUPS server break the print job 
whenever print options are changed and 
then try to restart the job from the 
beginning. Since Unified Linux Driver locks 
port while printing, the abrupt termination of 
the driver keeps the port locked and 
therefore unavailable for subsequent print 
jobs....
