ok...I merged and followed all the instructions on the doc....and everything installed fine....well, to my knowledge it did....
I could print doing cat test.txt > /dev/lp0...
but when I try to print a test page within localhost:631 it doesnt print anything...it just saids aborted.....

this is my error log.....
Code:

I [08/Jun/2003:09:36:15 +0000] Job 33 queued on '932c' by 'root'.
I [08/Jun/2003:09:36:15 +0000] Started filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/texttops (PID 1853) for job 33.

I [08/Jun/2003:09:36:15 +0000] Started backend /usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel (PID 1856) for job 33.

I got the foomatic-rip from linuxprinting.org....and put it in the /usr/lib/cups/filter/ and did the same thing....I mean same message...so I tried to set the foomatic-rip and the cupsd.conf to debug level and I get the same thing.....can anyone tell me whats going on? and what is status 22?
Thanks in advance...

That might be a good place to start. :) Check cupsd.conf, change it, restart cupsd, and try again.

But it should give more information about the error, which would give a better idea of where to look for problems. What's the output of the error with debug on?

This is a common problem with foomatic, especially the new 3.0.0 version that was recently released. The system will try to execute foomatic-rip and fail (status 22) simply because it can't find the executable.

what you need is a static link from /usr/lib/cups/filter to somewhere in your $PATH.

ln -sf /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip /usr/bin/foomatic-rip

_should_ cure your problems.

HTH.

Phill.
