Today I upgraded the cups & libcups packages on my system from 1.4.4-3 to 1.4.4-7 and found to my amazement that the above symptoms have disappeared! Previously I too could not print from any gnome-based app or from the GIMP. After today's update I can print from gedit, etc. and from the GIMP as well. Perhaps the problem was not with ghostscript after all.Printing from the GIMP using the gimp-gutenprint plugin still does not work, but that is probably not related though. With that plugin, the printer prints gibberish and a heap of formfeeds in stead of the picture.
This is indeed an interesting discovery!Looking at the cups changelog, this might be the bump to use a newer libpopple. Just a wild guess.
I'll reassing and see what the CUPS maintainers say about it. Thanks a lot for your valuable info, - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
