Cups & gimp-print "No pages found!"


i've been trying to get cups to work on my system, i had it working for awhile then small errors started popping up. It was a fully functional networked printer to only being able to print from the machine connected to it, then printing pages halfway, and now it won't print at all, I've tried 3 versions of cups( 1.1.16-1.1.18) and serval versions of gimp-print (even tried cvs). Here are some of the errrors from the errror_log

any ideas?
Also i can't print from using lpd, i'm not sure where the lpd log is but it just says an error was found and it can't print. But the printer does work, using an app i can connect to printer and clean the nozzels, etc, i just can't print using this printer utility. BTw printer is a lexmark z42.

thanks, that was not installed for some reason. I can print thru cups, but it only prints halfway then stalls. It strangely seems to be related to the fonts, if i print something using a fancy font it'll start printing then stop. but say i print with courier it'll print the first paragraph and stop. Not to sure about this though, have to look a bit more into it. This is what cups is doing while the printer is stalling,

and this is the printer state,
Printer State: processing, accepting jobs.
"Processing page 2..."

I'm not exactly sure whats the problem, anyone run into this problem? Printer driver info: LEXMARK Z42, CUPS+GIMP-print v4.2.4
