I got desparate and recompiled cups, gimp-print, ghostprint... Still it
does not work. Sometimes it doesn't even print at all. The printer flashes
like it is receiving data but nothing.
I connected the printer to my Windows computer and it seems to print fine.
So I don't think it is the printer.
I don't think it is gimp-print or ghostscript since I can print from
Windows to Linux using the raw queue. So does this leave CUPS as the
problem?
Thanks
