What are the alternative solutions to cups for network printing?
A problem has appeared in cups which means that I cannot print graphics (like a ,jpg) on either of the printers connected to the server. I can print .txt, .doc, .pdf. I cannot solve this problem. Not even after reinstalling cups and playing with a multiplicity of drivers.
So I need an alternative. Any suggestions?
I get an error of "/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster failed" or the job simply disappears. The log file does not seem to make a lot of sense. So many others have this type of problem but there appears to be no solution. Most threads posted are not answered ...
