thanks
Hello, Stefan. Thank you for the error log.

Which is slightly different from what was in your first mail. I do not
know whether that is significant.

cups-filters appears to be doing its job correctly.

These three lines are repeated at intervals until the end of the log. The
"Failed to set alternate interface . . ." message comes from cups via
Debian's usb-backend-further-enhancements.patch. It would seem that cups
has a problem communicating with the printer via the usb backend. Some
history of the patch is at
http://www.cups.org/str.php?L3965
Printing using the usb backend has changed since Squeeze was released. My
knowledge of things USB is sparse but it might be the suggestions made in bug
#697970 could help.
Is this type of log the normal one you get when printing any file or
does it only occur when printing a test page?
