[cups.general] R40 - new config tried -"/usr/lib/cups/backend/pstoraster failed"

[John Meshkoff]

HI,

I've tried modify printer to see if I can get the config right. First, I 
found the lpinfo command:

linus:/~/Desktop/hplip-3.10.5
johnpipe:$ /usr/sbin/lpinfo -v
network socket
direct hpfax
direct hp
network http
network ipp
network lpd
direct parallel:/dev/lp0
direct canon:/dev/lp0
direct epson:/dev/lp0
direct scsi
serial serial:/dev/ttyS0?baud=115200
serial serial:/dev/ttyS1?baud=115200
linus:/~/Desktop/hplip-3.1

I found a specific model driver, used the above parallel format and 
tried test-print and got this:

OfficeJet-R40xi "/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster failed"
Description: HP Printer/copier/fax
Location: Desk
Make and Model: HP Officejet r40xi, hpcups 3.10.4.16
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: parallel:/dev/lp0

The print job stopped here; with the previous configuration it had 
become "pending" (IIRC), and I canceled both jobs until I get it right.

Thanks, John

Thanks, John
