With those two files, the printer had always worked fine with Debian. Now I installed Debian on a new machine, and the printer won't print. Strange because the old machine, where the printer still does work, *also* has Debian Sid, the same operating system I have on my new Lenovo AMD A6 Desktop. >> > You have rastertosamsungspl as a filter.

Here it is: *cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-postscript 0 rastertosamsungspl" , but exactly the same output also comes from Lenovo machine, where the printer won't work... So I think there must be some other different special reason because one is ok and the other is not although the system is the same on both. Thanks, Rodolfo
