Package: foomatic-db
Version: 20030606-1

The pcl3 driver of Gs-esp (7.05.6-2) and gs-gnu (7.07-1) fails for a
HP-DeskJet_500C with the following error message:

? pcl3: The HP DeskJet 500C does not support setting a dry time.
Unrecoverable error: rangecheck in .putdeviceprops

And I guess the pcl3 driver is right. When I disable the dry time statement
from the gs command line, everything is fine.



I installed the foomatic driver with:

> foomatic-configure -n caepc08pcl -d pcl3 -p HP-DeskJet_500C

The ppd file goes to /etc/cups/ppd.



The command:

> foomatic-rip  -P caepc08pcl foo.ps

executes the failing gs statement:

> gs -q -dBATCH -dPARANOIDSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE \
     -sDEVICE=pcl3 -r300x300 -sSubdevice=hpdj500c -sColorModel=Gray \
     -sMedium=0 -dDryTime=10 -sIntensityRendering=halftones \
     -dRasterGraphicsQuality=0 -dDITHERPPI=60 -dMaxBitmap

? pcl3: The HP DeskJet 500C does not support setting a dry time.
Unrecoverable error: rangecheck in .putdeviceprops



AFAIK: The pcl3 drytime statement has its origin in the file:

/usr/share/foomatic/db/source/opt/218.xml



My shorthand solution is to remove the DryTime statement from the
ppd-file. I changed the line:

*FoomaticRIPOptionPrototype DryTime: " -dDryTime=%s"

to

*FoomaticRIPOptionPrototype DryTime: ""



The second and perhaps nicer solution is to comment out the whole block in
the ppd file beginning with:

*OpenUI *DryTime/Ink Drying Time (sec): PickOne

and ending with:

*CloseUI: *DryTime


My system:

Debian unstable _Sid_ (23072003)
libc6          2.3.2-4
kernel         2.4.20-xfs

Hi Christian, and thanks for your bugreport,

as far as I can say, this is fixed since (at least) february 2005.

The command-lines you provided in the 208138 bugreport can today be run 
without error, so I am hereby closing this bugreport. Please re-open if the 
problem is still current.

Cheers, 

OdyX
