Can't print HP 4550
I'm using RHEL4. The printer is in the network with it's own ip address.
I ran the config for the printer and set it up with network jetdirect. When i send a test page to print i only get a blank page. After that i try to print something else and nothing comes out. I went to the browswer xx.xx.xx.xx:631 and i'm able to see the printer configuration menu, etc. Here is the /var/log/cups/error_log for the blank test page (debub mode, the error part) D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ERROR >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] Error: Failed allocation of pMonoData in PrintPage D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] Error: /VMerror in --.outputpage-- D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] VM status: 0 363959 1722904 D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] Current allocation mode is local D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] Last OS error: 29 D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] GNU Ghostscript 7.07: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] renderer return value: 1 D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] renderer received signal: 1 D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] tail process done writing data to STDOUT D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] KID4 finished D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] KID4 exited with status 0 D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] KID3 exited with status 3 D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] Renderer exit stat: 3 D [20/Dec/2005:14:34:53 -0500] [Job 17] Process dying with "Possible error on renderer command line or PostScript error.

And, what does you GhostScript say when invoked from a command-line?
Is it segfaulting, too? How did you install CUPS and ESP gs? Both originals from your RedHat CDs or acquired somewhere else? Cheers, Tink |
1. How do i run Ghostscript when i have a network printer?
2. I install CUPS and ESP gs from the RH CD's. Thanks, |
Well, for some reason your CUPS is using a GNU gs and
not the ESP one it should be using... As to question #1: What has the connection of the printer got to do with the preprocessing? :) Just run gs -v and post the output... Cheers, Tink |
Here is the output of gs -v
# gs -v GNU Ghostscript 7.07 (2003-05-17) Copyright (C) 2003 artofcode LLC, Benicia, CA. All rights reserved. Thanks, javiergt |
Ok, so that's confirmed: you probably want to un-install
GNU gs, and re-install ESP gs. Try that, and see whether CUPS will work ;} Cheers, Tink |
I canīt remove Ghostscript 7.07 because it's giving dependencies problems
# rpm -e ghostscript-7.07-33 error: Failed dependencies: libijs.so is needed by (installed) gimp-print-4.2.7-2.i386 ghostscript is needed by (installed) ghostscript-fonts-5.50-13.noarch ghostscript is needed by (installed) hpijs-1.6-2.i386 ghostscript is needed by (installed) libgnomeprint22-2.8.0-3.i386 ghostscript >= 6.51-16 is needed by (installed) system-config-printer-0.6.116.4-1.i386 Can i try to install ESP gs without removing GNU gs and make it work? Thanks, javiergt |
No idea what RH EL4 will do if you do that, good luck.
Cheers, Tink |
