Cannot print. If I send a document (I tried pdf and a libreoffice doc) to my networked printer, it keeps on processing for a few minutes until I receive a "print error" message that there was a problem processing the document. Printer troubleshooter output attached.

On up-to-date F14. Happened today and last week. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. send a document to be printed (either using libreoffice, evince or lpr)
  
Actual results:
Error message, no print

Expected results:
No error message, a printout of the requested document

Comment 1 Jiri Popelka 2011-06-06 09:26:03 UTC
I see this in error_log:

The PPD version (5.2.6 Simplified) is not compatible with Gutenprint 5.2.7.',
Gutenprint: If you have upgraded your version of Gutenprint',
Gutenprint: recently, you must reinstall all printer queues.',
Gutenprint: If the previous installed version of Gutenprint',
Gutenprint: was 4.3.19 or higher, you can use the `cups-genppdupdate.5.2'",
Gutenprint: program to do this;

Maarten, can you remove and add the printer queue again to see if this is really the problem ?

Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2011-06-06 11:27:33 UTC
Actually, Maarten, before doing that could you please make a back-up copy of /etc/cups/ppd/hp4350.ppd?

Comment 4 Maarten 2011-06-06 11:51:35 UTC
Thank you Jiri and Tim for your rapid responses. 

I deleted the printer from the list of installed printers and then installed it again. Some packages had to be updated but it re-installed fine and is printing without problems.

Problem solved for me, many thanks. Tim, would you still want to see the backup copy of the .ppd?

Comment 5 Tim Waugh 2011-06-06 12:02:36 UTC
Yes please.  This should have been handled automatically when you updated gutenprint-cups, so I'd like to see what went wrong.  Thanks.
