(solved) Help me with CUPS
« on: November 20, 2011, 02:53:24 PM »
I'm trying to make CUPS work. I've managed to get printing to CUPS-pdf to work but when I try to print to a real printer the job never shows up in CUPS web interface. I've tried the built-in generic drivers, Gutenprint and Foomatic, all with the same result. What's missing?

It's cups.tcz that doesn't work, cups1311.tcz from the 3.x repo (I'm running 4.1) works fine.

After setting the log level to debug and restarting the cups daemon, what error messages do you see?

Loading ghostscript.tcz and ghostscript_common.tcz before cups.tcz solved my problem.
