My printer HP Photosmart C7280 printed fine until I upgraded my sid box
 and now cups gives:
 /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed

 (the script perl /usr/lib/filter/foomatic-rip exits on my system)

 hp-setup (as root) gives:

Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed

 I can't print anything now, SOS ...

I'd worry about that Authentication Rejected bit first.  Then try
falling back to another model name of the same type printer, an
earlier version.  I used an Epson that way recently.

I thank the DDs for their efforts in making this possible.  I had a
devil of a time trying to do this in Sarge, but Etch appears far more
amenable to nutbars like us non-CUPS users.  Great job!

My problem is partialy solved:
I have downloaded the ppd driver for my HP Photosmart C7280 at:

http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-PhotoSmart_C7200

and I replaced the driver supplied by the debian package by this one and
now hp-setup and hp-toolbox work fine but:

I can scan a document.
I can make a copie of a document (from the computer)

I can't print a file, always I get: /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed
Thanks for your help.
