I have given a lot of tips to the original reporter about what can have gone wrong, but I did not get any answer.

[Bug 48173] Re: Printing on remote Windows shared printer doesn't work
I have uploaded new test packages (after working out a common concept with Debian's Ghostscript maintainer): For Gutsy download all packages from http://www.linux- foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/gutsy/ghostscript/binary/ and do sudo dpkg -i *gs-esp*.deb *gs-afpl*.deb *gs-gpl*.deb *libgs*.deb *ghostscript*.deb to replace your ESP and/or AFPL Ghostscript by the new merged GPL Ghostscript. If you are running Feisty or older download the files from http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/gutsy/ghostscript/ into the same directory. Then do sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get build-dep gs-esp gs-gpl dpkg-source -x ghostscript_8.60.dfsg.1-0ubuntu1.dsc cd ghostscript-8.60.dfsg.1 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot cd .. sudo dpkg -i *gs-esp*.deb *gs-afpl*.deb *gs-gpl*.deb *libgs*.deb *ghostscript*.deb Answer every question which appears with y, so that all needed packages get installed.

[Bug 48173] Re: Printing on remote Windows shared printer doesn't work
Due to change of Artifex' license policy to do the head development of Ghostscript under GPL and the merger of the extra functionality of ESP Ghostscript (ESP Ghostscript is discontinued now), the packages gs-esp and gs-afpl got obsolete. They are both replaced by gs-gpl, version 8.60 or newer. I have already done a first test package: For Gutsy download all packages from http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/gutsy/gs-gpl/binary/ and do sudo dpkg -i *gs-esp*.deb *gs-afpl*.deb *gs-gpl*.deb to replace your ESP and AFPL Ghostscript by the new merged GPL Ghostscript. If you are running Feisty or older download the files from http://www.openprinting.org/download/printing/esp-gpl-ghostscript-merge/ into the same directory. Then do sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get build-dep gs-esp gs-gpl dpkg-source -x gs-gpl_8.60.dfsg.1-0ubuntu1.dsc cd gs-gpl-8.60.dfsg.1 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot cd .. sudo dpkg -i *gs-esp*.deb *gs-afpl*.deb *gs-gpl*.deb Answer every question which appears with y, so that all needed packages get installed. Or try the distribution-independent binary package from http://www.openprinting.org/download/printing/esp-gpl-ghostscript- merge/README The new grand unified GPL Ghostscript will make it into Ubuntu soon, after - Agreeing on the name with Debian: gs-gpl or simply gs - Adding the C header files to libgs-gpl-dev - Fixing upstream bug 689237: http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689237 Please tell us your results with the test packages. -- Printing on remote Windows shared printer doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/48173 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Can you try with the new gs-gpl packages? Download all packages from http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/gutsy/gs-gpl/binary/ and do sudo dpkg -i *gs-esp*.deb *gs-gpl*.deb to replace your ESP Ghostscript by the new GPL Ghostscript. -- Printing on remote Windows shared printer doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/48173 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Try also to switch to the GPL Ghostscript with merged ESP Ghostscript functionality as described here: http://www.linuxprinting.org/download/printing/esp-gpl-ghostscript- merge/README Does this solve your problem? -- Printing on remote Windows shared printer doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/48173 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Is not necessarily a GhostScript problem. I did not find pnm2ppa: Command not found, but check whether pnm2ppa is installed on your system (which pnm2ppa). If not, the problem is that ubuntu-desktop does not require it (then this is a ubuntu-desktop bug). Another cause for your problem can be in foomatic-gswrapper. To solve it, simply update the foomatic-filters package: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install foomatic-filters and check whether you can print then. Then this is a duplicate of bug #23461. ** Changed in: gs-esp (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Needs Info -- Printing on remote Windows shared printer doesn't work https://launchpad.net/bugs/48173 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
