CUPS + Samsung 1210
Hi,
I'm coming back with my Cups problem and a little more info.
I want to print on a Samsung 1210 printer with Cups.
I'm on Sid, and since the last upgrade, it doesn't work anymore (it used
to).
Samsung 1210 seems to be a so called GDI printer.
It ships with a .ppd file, that I did put in
/usr/share/cups/model/Samsung/1200-gdi.ppd
This worked before upgrade.
It seems that gs might be the culprit, despite the fact that
'gs -h | grep gdi' does show a line mentionning gdi.
Or is foomatic-gswrapper the culprit ?

Should I downgrade gs, or cups, or foomatic, to what version ?
Any help appreciated,
