Hi, I don't exactly know why you can't print a ps file, but I will try to give you a few suggestions. Sometimes, my ps files come out wrong (when lp instead of lpr is used, I think).
First, what's the application you you're printing it from? Is it Ghostscript, or evince? Second, try printing it from the command line using lpr command: $ lpr -Pprintename -o page-ranges=range filename.ps Does it work at all? If, not try converting your ps file into pdf by: $ ps2pdf filename.ps (a new pdf file with the name filename.pdf will be placed in the current working directory). to print that pdf file, try different pdf readers, like xpdf (the lightest and best!), evince (which can read ps files as well), and Adobe Acrobat Reader Sorry if it doesn't help you, I hope that hp guys will be of more use. Good luck, -Yevgeny On 4/3/07, Albert Astals Cid <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, i am having problems printing a PS file. > > In my main machine Kubuntu 6.10 with 1.6.9 shipped with Kubuntu the printer > hangs when sending the PS file to be printed. > > In my secondary machine with Kubuntu 7.04 and HPLIP 1.7.3 downloaded from your > web site the printer no longer hangs but it prints wrong. > > The problem is that the file is somewhat "confidential" so i would prefer > sending it to an individual person rather than to the whole mailing list. > > I've confirmed the file is correct as a friend told me he can print the file > correctly on three different printers that are pure PostScript printers. > > Any developer that wants the file? > > I am using a HP PSC 1610. > > Thanks. > > Albert > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Take Surveys.
