After manually selecting this driver for Epson Stylus Color II,
/usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint/5.0/en/stp-escp2-ii.5.0.ppd.gz, as
reported in the documentatio n of gutenprint, the test page does not
print correctly:

Which test page?  How did you print it? (there are several documented
ways of doing this.)

lpr -P <printername> /usr/share/cups/data/testprint.ps

will print the CUPS test page.

I used the button "Print Test Page" of CUPS web interface


e.g. instead of printing

-----

it prints

_____ -----

this is only to try to make you understand the problem... it is not
only skipping a line...

I'm not sure which part of the test page this is referring to.  If you
have a scanner, could you scan it in and put the image somewhere for
download?

Did you configure the printer to use the correct papersize etc.?

yes I did.

here's a scan of (part of) the test page http://rap.dsi.unifi.it/~bettini/test_page.jpg

this should give an idea of the problem...

thanks
