Thank you H. Blischke

- From what I understood in your comment and Johannes', we can rule out the
possibility of device detection issue.

@Johannes,

I ran :

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
# cat /usr/share/ghostscript/9.18/examples/colorcir.ps \
 | /usr/bin/gs -dQUIET -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH \
   -sDEVICE=qqq -sstdout=%stderr -sOutputFile=%stdout -c -f -_ \
 | cat - >/tmp/gs.out
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

on my system and got

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
INFO: Start rendering...
INFO: Processing page 1...
INFO: Processing page 2...
INFO: Rendering completed
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
as the output.

Then I replaced this ghostscript command with the one shown in the error
log: 

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
cat /usr/share/ghostscript/9.18/examples/colorcir.ps | /usr/bin/gs -dQQUIET
- -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dNOINTERPOLATE -sDEVICE=cups
- -sstdout=%sstderr -sOutputFile=stdout -sOutputType=0 -r600x600
- -dMediaPosition=1 -dDEVICEWIIDTHPOINTS=595 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=841
- -dcupsBitsPerColor=8 dcupsColorOrder=0 --dcupsColorSpace=17
- -dcupsInteger0=26 -scupsPageSizeName=A4 -I/usr/share/cups/fonnts -c -f -_ |
cat - >/tmp/gs.out
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

for which the output was the same :

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
INFO: Start rendering...
INFO: Processing page 1...
INFO: Processing page 2...
INFO: Rendering completed
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since both the commands (simpler one that you showed and the one in error
log) give the same result, does it mean that ghostscript command parameters
are not the problem?
