Hi everyone. I've been trying to get this going for quite a while, but
got busy. I'm finally back on it now so hopefully someone may have a
suggestion because I'm stumped.
I've got a Lexmark Z52 printer shared through CUPS on the network from a
different machine. I've also got CUPS running on the machine I am trying
to get to print. It sees the shared printer and can use the CUPS
interface to print a test page to the printer shared by the other compute=
r.
The problem comes when printing from this machine. Whenever trying to
print, instead of printing the text of the document or website, it
prints a bunch of code. Here is a short sample:
-------
flipXY 0 eq c3x2 c4x2 eq or
{false PickCoords }
{ /shrink c3x2 c4x2 eq
{0} {c1x2 c4x2 sub c3x2 c4x2 sub div abs} ifelse def
/xshrink {c4x2 sub shrink mul c4x2 add} def
[...etc...]
-------
The printer is shared via CUPS as: "LEXMARK Z52 - CUPS+Gimp-Print v4.2.7
on Mark-Kanes-Computer.local."
That machine "Mark-Kanes-Computer.local." is the machine that's sharing
it over the network, which runs Mac OS X Jaguar.
On the machine trying to print, I do have Gimp Print installed, as well
as some other print related ports as I was trying to follow a guide back
when I initially attempted to install it.
a2ps-a4-4.13b_3
ghostscript-gnu-7.07_13
gnu-7.07_13
gimp-print-4.2.7_1
libijs-0.35
xfce4-print-4.2.3
xorg-printserver-6.8.2_2
Thanks very much in advance for any suggestions!
