I'm using an USB HP 952C printer, with latest ~x86 installs for ghostscript, foomatic and cups. Printing doesn't work, because gs doesn't seem to be called correctly (an illegal instruction is produced in the pstoraster script). My test file is the printer test page on the CUPS web admin interface. When I try to print it, with cupsd running with a debug LogLevel, I get this kind of output (sorry, this is big, but I didn't want to remove important lines): I [09/Jun/2003:00:33:11 -0400] Started "/usr/lib/cups/cgi-bin/printers.cgi" (pid=30629) D [09/Jun/2003:00:33:11 -0400] SendCommand() 3 file=6 D [09/Jun/2003:00:33:11 -0400] AcceptClient() 5 from localhost:631.

Last week, I reinstalled the system from scratch, and since then I haven't got anything to print yet. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
will have a look .. sorry for the delay there was a problem with the mail alias so i didn't get the Bugzilla mails
is this bug still valid?
I didn't look too deeply into it, but I can now print a test page, while earlier I couldn't. But, when I reported this bug, I was using ~x86 keywords, while now I use x86. IIRC cups and gs versions are the same for both, so it should be fine. I think this can be closed now.
