[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#356500: does not print anything - probably merge with bug 301012

Wed Apr 23 16:28:47 UTC 2008

When adding a "Canon PIXMA iP4000" USB-printer I got some strange errors. After upgrading to latest
sid-packages (2008-apr-23) the problems are still the same. I spent some time on investigating logs and
console, but no solution is found. See log-snippets below: (GET-lines from access_log partially removed)

As you can see, there are some strange paths that I didn't even expect to be used, because the package was
installed the Debian way (*.deb packages, not *.tar.gz): /opt/share/ppd ???

Many thanks in advance
