printing

2014-08-17 Thread dick kampman
My old HP-LaserJet-6MP is printing apropriate under Ubuntu and Fedora.
Under Debian, helas, I just get white pages. I tried to
edit /etc/cups/ppd/HP-LaserJet-6MP but without result.

What should I do?

Using http://127.0.0.1:631 I succeeded to install a valid printerdriver.
Thanks for the advice.
