HP-PhotoSmart_7150 install


Hi,

I've a problem with my printer, I installed cups, and hpijs both the current stable, and I think my printer uses foomatic, and the hpijs driver installs foomatic-rip and foomatic-gswrapper. I used the localnet setup. I do not understand what the description field means. I filed in the rest. I then printed a test page and got a cryptic message printed.

Error: /invalidfont in finfont
Operand stack:
bigFonf Helveticia-Bold Font


I guess i did something wrong. I was wondering if anyone could help, I think its something simple. It seems to me its not finding the cups fonts perhaps? I did install esp-ghostscript. I don't know if it needs it. I am confused about how printers work. I have been reading around linuxprinting, but i still have no clue

thanks, joe
