Hi Wolfgang,

I can also confirm that printing to a kyocera FS-1300D (as a postscript-
printer) does not work any more. It does not print and hangs instead.

This seems to be due to the postscript file generated from the PDF by
ghostscript (called by the pdftops cups filter in my case).

To test I tried to print my .bashrc: lp .bashrc

1. I redirected the final output a file and then sent to the printer by hand:
printer does not print and hangs.

2. I modified cupsfilters.convs such that I get the PDF. I then used pdf2ps to
generate the postscript file. Sent it to the printer: printer does not print
and hangs.

3. I used pdftops from poppler-utils to generate the postscript file: Sent it
to the printer and it works.

4. I used ps2ps on this postscript file: the generated one does not work and
printer hangs.


I called gs with -sDEVICE=pswrite to genrate a postscript file from the PDF:
that one worked.


The only way I may print using cups with a kyocera FS-1300D as postscript
printer is by printing to a file as PDF and then using acroread to actually
print it.

I tried to follow your explanations but somehow I did not succeed. :)

Anyway, did you try to set the printer to use a generic Postscript PPD as outlined here in this report before?

regards
Michael
