I don't think any of those errors are a problem, do you have the log level set to debug in cupsd.conf?

[beerstein]

Hi Rich: Thanks´s
I did not set up IP6 on purpose - I need to change that - but where?
In panel network set up? or ?

[beerstein]

I have to check cupsd.conf - but I remember that I had probles with read only errors when I tried to modify that file
Ich will check and post here
Thank you

[Rich]

Hi beerstein
Maybe you are loading the  IPV6  extension?

[beerstein]

Hi:
I fixed the IPV6 problem. This was set in /etc/hosts
I did not set this up. This comes with the installation
here is the line:

#::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback

Now I only get that missing driver error:

E [08/Sep/2011:16:53:39 +0000] [cups-driverd] Unable to open driver directory "/usr/local/lib/cups/driver": No such file or directory

E [08/Sep/2011:16:55:00 +0000] [Job 2] Job stopped due to filter errors; please consult the error_log file for details.

I did set the LogLevel in cupsd.conf to debug!

I think I need to install a driver in addition to the PPD file. A PPD file is probably not enough to install a printer.

Hi beerstein
I just checked on my machine.    /usr/local/lib/cups/driver    is a path it's looking for, not a file.
On my machine that driver subdirectory contains a link to   gutenprint.5.2

[beerstein]

thank's I will try that.
BTW: There was a package with linux drivers on the CD which came with the printer.
I tried to start the ./install.sh script, but I received funny and buggy responses on the screen

Hi beerstein

but I received funny and buggy responses on the screen

You mean like "Knock knock, who's there" and "Leave me alone, I'll install the drivers later"?

[beerstein]

yes - strange things happen:
I put gutenprint.tcz on boot and after reboot there was a:
/usr/local/lib/cups/driver/
folder with the gutenprint 5.2 link
After that the "missing driver" error disappeared, but another error showed up:
"unable to execute gs program"  - this was easy - I just added gs.tcz to onboot.

After all that the printer made some noise after I printed a testpage - but no testpage.

I think the problem could be related to the foomatic-rip / gutenprint and ghostscript versions.

I will dig into this and post back

My fallible memory may be playing tricks but I have a vague recollection of these symptoms (way back when).  IIRC replacing gs.tcz with ghostscript.tcz and ghostscript_common worked here.
   

[beerstein]

Hi: I replaced  gs.tcz with both extensions you mentioned. But then the error log asked for ps again.
So I needed ps.tcz also and put this one "on boot" again.

printing through lp0 a noise indicates that something arrived at the printer. printing via usb no reaction at all.

I think the problem is related to the foomatic-rip function. There is a filter.conf file
in /usr/local/etc/foomatic which is not edited and is the same as the filter.conf.sample

It seems to me that this file need attention and modified. What do you think?

This looks strange - what uri are you using for your printer?

(i.e. something that looks similar to: hp:/usb/OfficeJet_K80?serial=ES0911401VOH)

[beerstein]

Hi: How can I find the uri of my printer?
Where do I have to look for?

When I print through lp0 (parallel printer) the printer makes a noise which indicates the "printer warm up is initiated"
after that nothing happens. On screen the progress bar moves perfectly and it seems that the page is going to be printed.

[Juanito]

I'm not at a linux machine right now, but if you use the cups browser interface, you should be able to find the printer(s) you created and look at their properties to find the uri cups is trying to use.
