I had no luck with cups, not even the web interface wanted to open, nor the commands to answer . I suppose I'll have to study how this application works some day (the ghostscript Makefile warns: stp is outdated). yes I'm using ulpt0 - sorry if I don't catch the difference between I/O services! no, before installing the driver it was not possible to print anything! Anyway many thanks for your concern.
