Cups 1.3.9 on Ubuntu 8.10 - no printout, no error

[Victor]

Hi,

I am lost and desparate. I cannot print on our Epson AccuLaser CX11 network printer.

I have installed the driver package and followed the instructions at the gedda.info help page, but there are no printouts.

What is truly frustrating is that there appear to be no errors in the error_log or the access_log.

test print jobs get processed and apparently sent to the printer, and it all seems to be OK, except that there is no printout, nor signs of life from the printer. The printer naturally works without a hitch when accessed from a Vista machine.

Here is the error_log after the "Test page" request from localhost:631

The only thing that looks suspect is the: "cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found!" error, but I could not find any information about the meaning or severity of this error.
