[cups.general] Printing problem

Hi,

today I tested it again from a G4 runing MAC OS 10.2.
Printing a Word document directly to the printer (client.conf without
a server line) is working well. Using the cups print server (client.conf
WITH server line) sends the job correctly to the printer, the spooler is
empty, but the printer is never finishing the ripping ...

How can I debug this error ? What else can I try ?

Bye, Peer
