Description of problem: After updating to ghostscript-8.70-5.fc12.x86_64, the printer only prints black pages with small vertical lines and some patterns on it. After downgrading to ghostscript-8.70-2.fc12.x86_64.rpm, everything works fine again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ghostscript-8.70-5.fc12.x86_64 cups-1.4.2-20.fc12.x86_64 turboprint-2.12-1.x86_64 (from http://www.turboprint.de/) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Update to ghostscript-8.70-5.fc12.x86_64 2. Print something (e.g. a PDF file or a test page). Actual results: The printed page is mostly black with only some vertical stripes and patterns on it. Expected results: The page is printed correctly. Additional info: I am using turboprint as driver for my Canon Pixma IP 4000. I don't know if this is a bug in ghostscript or an incompatibility with turboprint. Anyhow I could reproduce this behaviour on two Fedora 12 x86_64 machines.
Please attach the PPD for the queue you are using. You can find this in the /etc/cups/ppd directory.

Thanks. This is some kind of regression in the ghostscript cups driver.

8.71-1.fc12 works for me
ghostscript-8.71-2.fc12 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 12. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ghostscript-8.71-2.fc12
Using Fedora 12 and turboprint-2.13-2.i586.rpm. Update from ghostscript-8.70-2.fc12.i686.rpm to ghostscript-8.70-5.fc12.i686.rpm started the black print page problem. Update to ghostscript-8.71-1.fc12.i686.rpm initially fixed it but after reboot black page again. Tried ghostscript-8.71-2.fc12.i686.rpm but still black page. Dropped back to ghostscript-8.70-2.fc12.i686.rpm and works again (had to remove ghostscript and all dependencies first). My printer is a Canon MP780 and installed as local using tpu://Canon/MP780 .

Still only ghostscript-8.71-1.fc12 showing on yum update. Tried to install ghostscript-8.71-2.fc12.i686.rpm manually but got the same error which meant I had to completely uninstall ghostscript and dependencies first :- sudo rpm -Uvh /data/ghostscript-8.71-2.fc12.i686.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libgs.so is needed by ghostscript-8.71-2.fc12.i686 libgs.so.8 is needed by (installed) libspectre-0.2.3-1.fc12.i686 sudo yum provides /usr/lib/libgs.so.8 ghostscript-8.70-2.fc12.i686 : A PostScript interpreter and renderer. Repo : installed Matched from: Other : Provides-match: /usr/lib/libgs.so.8 Which has nothing to do with libspectre. 8.70-1 installs fine. Should 8.70-2 really be checking for libgs.so ? rpm -qlp /data/ghostscript-8.71-2.fc12.i686.rpm | grep libgs /usr/lib/libgs.so.8 /usr/lib/libgs.so.8.71
Removed ghostscript and dependencies, e.g.turboprint using sudo yum remove ghostscript. Still complaining about libgs.so , so sudo rpm -Uvh --nodeps ghostscript-8.71-2.fc12.i686.rpm sudo rpm -Uvh turboprint-2.12-2.i586.rpm This time nothing actually get sent to the printer and no error messages. Turboprint print monitor just shows "Printer: USB error". Reinstalled 8.70-2 and works fine, monitor says "Printer: idle".
