I am setting up a Canon LBP6200 printer on USB which goes through the motionsof printing but nothing actually prints.  A helpful poster on the forum set up this

sudo cupsfilter -p /etc/cups/ppf/PPD -m printer/foo -e /etc/nsswitch.conf  > out.dat 2>log

and the latter part of the resulting log is

These are the filters used to process the print job. pstocapt3 is the Canon filter from the capt package.

The first two filters complete successfully.

Can anyone explain the ghostscript error and suggest how to overcome eit?
