Even though this may well be the same bug, could you file it separately so it can be unmerged if appropriate? I guess the package to file against would be cups or foomatic-db, since that is the "front-end" whose maintainers would know what information to get and what back-end to blame it on. > I have > tried with ghostscript from stable (8.71) and unstable (9.01).

Debugging would require the full relevant pipeline; see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Printing/Debugging#Finding_where_the_problem_lies Looking at /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/printer/Brother-HL-2030.xml, I see: B hl1250 > Finally I get working the printer using the foomatic drivers: > Brother HL - 2030 Foomatic/hl1250 Ah, ok. I suppose the failures happen with gutenprint My foomatic-db-fu is not so great, so the closest I could find is /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/driver/gutenprint-ijs.5.2.xml which says gs -q -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=ijs -sIjsServer=ijsgutenprint.5.2 -dIjsUseOutputFD%A -sIjsParams="STP_VERSION=5.2.6,%B"%Z -sOutputFile=- - i.e., device=ijs, not device=bit. Changing "debug: 0" to "debug: 1" in /etc/foomatic/filter.conf and looking at /tmp/foomatic-rip.log might be helpful. > The CUPS error's logs contains: > > E [09/Apr/2011:11:14:29 +0200] [Job 9] File > '/System/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/sRGB Profile.icc' not found This sounds interesting and worth reporting (or finding a similar bug), too. I don't know if it's related, either. Thanks, and hope that helps. Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-printing-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

It might be related: In recent Debian releases of Ghostscript I ripped the included icclib library but forgot to instead link against the shared system library instead as intended. This should be fixed with Ghostscript 9.0.2~dfsg-1 just uploaded a moment ago. Please test if that works. That one is also a new upstream release, with bugfixes related to color calibration, so even if it works now and not earlier on it might still be a different bug than the icclib breakage that is the cause. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Bug#522417: ghostscript: Doesn't work with Brother printers
Hello, I have the same problem. My specs: - Debian unstable (installed a week ago). - Kernel 2.6.32 (due to graphics drivers incompatible, for now, with 2.6.38). - Brother HL-2030 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.6 [en] driver When I try to print with my Brother Hl-2030 it doesn't work. I have tried with ghostscript from stable (8.71) and unstable (9.01). When I try the Mike Simons reproducer it outputs this: aaguilar@MACHINE:~$ /usr/bin/gs -r1200 -g10200x13200 -q -dNOPROMPT -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER -sDEVICE=bit -sOutputFile=- - -c quit < /usr/share/cups/data/testprint | wc GPL Ghostscript 9.01: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 8 56 630 aaguilar@MACHINE:~$ /usr/bin/gs -r1200 -g10200x13200 -q -dNOPROMPT -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER -sDEVICE=bit -sOutputFile=- - -c quit < /usr/share/cups/data/testprint | wc GPL Ghostscript 8.71: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 9 60 647 The CUPS error's logs contains: E [09/Apr/2011:11:14:29 +0200] [Job 9] File '/System/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/sRGB Profile.icc' not found E [09/Apr/2011:11:15:21 +0200] [Job 10] File '/System/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/sRGB Profile.icc' not found I don't know if this is relative to the problem.
