Subject: cups and ghostprint ESP
Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2006 19:45:41 -0600
Having trouble getting cups to work with a smb installed printer.

It connects ok apparently but has trouble finding ghostscrip ESP.

Googling this group on `cups ESP'  I find a few mentions but mostly
about needing to install it.

I have it installed as indicated by esearch:
*  app-text/ghostscript-esp
      Latest version available: 7.07.1-r10
      Latest version installed: 7.07.1-r10
[...]

The error output with cups set to log debug indicates it cannot
find the ESP ghostscript files:

[...]

I [21/Feb/2006:17:46:11 -0600] Hint: Do you have ESP Ghostscript installed?
I [21/Feb/2006:17:46:11 -0600] Hint: Try setting the LogLevel to "debug".
