Now this is very odd. I did the self test, and now it
works. From the
test AND from Linux.
Probably, the yellow ink jet was just clogged, a common problem if you don't use your
printer regularly, particularly if you live in a dry climate like I do (desert Southwest
US). The manufacturer of my printer (Epson) recommended that I use the printer at least
twice a week to keep the jets clear. It didn't help. The jets eventually became
hopelessly clogged. I even considered building a humidity control cabinet to keep the
printer in.
I switched to laser printers.
