[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#465998: cupsys: Fails to print with "Unrecoverable error: rangecheck in .putdeviceprops"

[Guillaume]

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.3.5-1+b1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I cannot print anymore using CUPS; I have tried printing from Iceweasel
and from OOWriter, but both fail. It used to work, but since I do not
print much, I cannot tell when it actually stopped working. The printer
is a Canon i450 using the Foomatic/bjc800 driver.

In /var/log/cups/error_log, I get the following:
D [15/Feb/2008:21:27:18 +0100] [Job 199] Starting renderer

D [15/Feb/2008:21:27:19 +0100] [Job 199] Process dying with "The

Can anyone tell me what is going on and what is wrong?

Thanks.

Guillaume
