cups-pdf - stops with status 249!

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

There doesnt appear to be a forum for cups-pdf printing. I have installed cups-pdf with the defaults as per installation instructions on http://cip.physik.uni-wuerzburg.de/~vrbehr/cups-pdf/ Basiucally I chose postscript as the vendor and colour for the driver. Colour was the only option available.

When I print a test page from the cups-admin web app all goes well. Whenever I try and print from a client machine the printer crashes and the following appears in my cups error-log.

Enabling the log level to debug results in tons of output in which I cannot find any clues. Maybe because I dont know what I am looking for. What is status 249?
