Hi, William.

Thanks for the help!  I had to emerge foomatic-filters-ppds, after which
it was easy.  My printer now prints.

[gentoo-user] Printer setup: where is foomatic-rip?

2011-03-30 Thread Alan Mackenzie
Hi, gentoo!

I'm trying to set up my printer (a Samsung ML-1450 (which looks like an
HP Laserjet)) according to the Gentoo Printing Guide.  There is no
problem with the USB connection to it.

I've got as far as printing a test page (in section 4).  The page
doesn't print.  The error message in /var/log/cups/error_log is:

Filter foomatic-rip for printer ML-1450 not available: no such
file or directory

The driver I've downloaded and installed is pxlmono (as recommended).

I've tried emerge foomatic, to no avail.

How do I get foomatic-rip and get it working?

Thanks in advance!
