RE: Gimp Print Problem
The attachment is a segment of the /var/log/cups/error_log beginnig two
lines before the first "false" result and continuing to the Ghostscript
exit. This was generated by trying to print a single line of text.
If anyone can help resolve this problem I would appreciate the help.
Background: The Epson Stylus Color 860 printer was working perfectly
with a purchased version of CUPS installed on a Debian Woody system with
a 2.4.18 kernel. It is attached to a USB port. At that time I was
using Gnome.
Two changes took place. First, I switched to Testing and a 2.4.20
kernel trying to get an Actiontec Wireless USB Adapter to work - I have
never succeded. Second, I switched to KDE 2.2.25 to be consistant with
the other users in the family. To get the printer to work with KDE
installed the Debian cupsys, cupsomatic, gimp, gimp1.2-print and
escputil packages.
Current Status: lp testtext prints nothing, generates the attached
error_log segment.
escputil -s -u -r /dev/usblp0 returns the
printer status information.
A print test from either localhost:631 ir
kde prints a color octogon in the
upper left corner and two large
L-shaped bars (backward L's).
Gimp prints a nice picture.
Note: I usually try to respond from mutt to attach the message to the
relavant string. With vi I have worked out how to open two files and
cut and paste between them but I haven't figured out how to paste or
attach a file to a response being generated by mutt. If there is a way
to do this, I would appreciate hearing about it.
