Hi community,

i've tried for days to make my OfficeJet 5610 work with FreeBSD and pdf printing.

Let me explain the problem:

I'm using HPIJS driver as suggested on linuxprinting.org .

I've added my printer and i can access it through ipp with windows and linux without problem.

I can print cups test pages from the webinterface.

I can also print plain text from remote computers without problem.

The only problem (so far) is when i try to print a pdf document.

Nothing prints until 5-25 minutes and during that time 3 processes are eating cpu's time:

 1082 cups        1  -8    0 60392K 34304K pipdwc   0:04 46.71% gsc
 1086 cups        1  -8    0 10512K  5168K pipewr   0:03 34.33% hpijs
 1076 cups        1  -8    0  8268K  5932K pipewr   0:01  6.23% perl5.8.8

I am quite deseperated since i don't see what to do!

I didn't know where to post it so i putted it in "General" Section hope this is correct

Thanks a lot for your help
