Bug Description

Binary package hint: cupsys

Printing the testpage, using the printers properties dialog, the printer comes up with a rather reduced variant of that page. Color and graphics are present, the caracters and digits are not.

Printing in an application fails completly. The printjob shows up in the Queue for a couple of seconds and disapears, without anything happening.

The output of printbuginfoscript:

I have to appologize,
after one of the ghostscript updates that came by lately the printer started to work.
It works as expeted now.
If it were up to me, this bug may be closed now.

Thank you,
