My problems with CUPS

I am trying to get cups set up for both a local usb printer and a windows 2k printer. I am using the web setup tool, and it doesnt seem like there is much that I could have screwed up. They are epson printers and I am using the gimp-print-cups drivers. My error_log file says the following at the end after I try to print a test page:

I [10/Jul/2002:02:56:50 -0700] Job 5 queued on 'epson870' by 'root'.
E [10/Jul/2002:02:56:50 -0700] Unable to convert file 0 to printable format for job 5!

Thanks for your help,
Garron

Installing the new Ghostscript should take care of this. Of course, it seems that the new gimp-print is broken, so you might not be able to print anyway.

Thanks for the help. That fixed it. I cant believe that I spent so many hours when all that I needed to do was update one package.
