Bug#324356: cupsys-driver-gimpprint-data: stylus color printers need "gs-esp" dependence
Package: cupsys-driver-gimpprint-data
Version: 4.2.7-10
Severity: important
Hi,
I Hope I report this bug on the right package, maybe you could forward
it the right one if I am wrong.
I tried to install an epson stylus color C86, lets say I did not have
too much problems until I tried to print the test page. But when I
tried to print the test page nothing happened, I just could see that
the jobs were cancelled. After searches on google I saw that I was
not the only one who had this problem.
Finally after a long search I discovered that I needed the
gs-esp package, I guess it is a filter or translator. I think that a
depence from your package to this package would be a good thing as
this filter is referenced from ppd files of your package. And it is
very difficult to guess the solution, I had to look far away in an
error log.
Bye,
Mickaël
