Ubuntu Installation :: Enhanced Postscript Files Not Printing

Apr 29, 2011

I use a Dual core desktop PC with Ubuntu 10.10. A hp-laser- jet 4250 printer is connected to it. I am getting able to print all files except .ps and .eps files. When I send a .ps or .eps file for printing, no job is actually reaching to printer.

Slackware :: Not Getting Proper Printing In 13.37 - Prints Out Text Of Postscript

May 22, 2011

I have Brother HL2250N. This worked out of the box with 13.0 using the Brother drivers. I also have a Brother MFC-7820N which works fine in 13.0 and 13.37. In 13.37 the testpage from CUPS prints fine. However when I try to print anything from kate or libreoffice I just get pages and pages of text starting with

[code]...

I assume this the post script file that is printing out. How do I get this to print properly?

CentOS 5 Server :: Cups & Samba -- Printing From WINXP Client As Postscript Fails?

Mar 14, 2009

Apologies if this was asked before -- I have googled the last bytes out of my Firefox but fail to find anything helpful. Here's my problem:I have a foomatic hpijs cups-driver for a HP Inkjet (Non-PS printer) installed. Printing from UNIX-hosts works. I have cups configured not to allow raw-printing (/etc/cups/mime.types: #application/octet-stream, /etc/cups/mime.convs: #application/octet-stream).I have now installed samba-printing, the cups PS-drivers plus the Windows PS-drivers are populated to /etc/samba/drivers/W32X86/ and get pushed to the WIN-Client.Problem is that when I print from a WINXP client, the printer outputs heaps of Postscript-text instead of my page.I have tried to debug this a bit but fail to find anything really useful. My observations so far:

- The samba-pushed HP_Photosmart_3300.ppd (in both /etc/samba/drivers/... and in the resulting dir on the WINXP client) reads:
*cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-postscript 0 foomatic-rip"

Software :: PostScript Fails To Start - Printing Error Messages "Could Not Get GGV Control: Failed To Activate"

Mar 29, 2011

I have an older version of ggv on RHEL for viewing PostScript (.ps) files, but the binary I have refuses to open files from AFS. ggv-2.12.0 is able to open these files from AFS just fine on my Mac. I was not able to find packaged binaries for RHEL 5 or 6 for ggv-2.12.0, so I downloaded the source and compiled it. Unfortunately, it fails to start, printing these error messages:

[code]...

Does anyone know the fix? Or alternatively, is there another good and well-maintained PostScript viewer for Linux?

Debian :: Convert Postscript Files To Pdf Format

May 5, 2010

I use Linux for my everyday work but lately I've been faced with a trouble when I send out file printouts from my browser from my Debian system to (normally) window$ systems, where they are not readable. Is there a way for me to convert the postscript files into pdf format? Most window$ users will have some sort of pdf reader installed but I am still to find one user that has Ghostscript and Ghostview installed. where can I find the TTF fonts that are shipped with every standard installation of Debian? I'm sometimes forced to print files through a windows system and because the fonts loaded in that system are not the ones I use in Debian (URW Gothic L, as an example) I end up having my official documents disfigured. If I can carry around with me a ready-to-install fonts package I can get over this obstacle.

CentOS 5 :: Evince Not Opening Postscript Files With Long Names

Feb 28, 2011

I am using CentOS 5.5 64 bit.

My work requires me to have a lot of postscript files. Hence i have elaborate names for easy identification. For example --- AP-1_Jul-Ctrl-noEqSA_bg25C_precip,U250-150_xy.ps. I am unable to open them using evince. I get a blank evince screen with loading written on it. The same file named as 1.ps opens in a jiffy. As of now evince quickly opens pdf files with long names. But i would not like to convert ps to pdf.

Even kghostview does not open these long-named files.

Mar 14, 2010

I've searched google and read quite a few threads on the the topic of installing the new enhanced rt73-k2wrlz.3.03 driver and modprobe my rt73usb driver but I'm running into a road block here when I get these messages after I run sudo make install.I have attached a screenshot.I have already run sudo aptitude.Sudo aptitude safe-upgrade.Sudo aptitude install linux headers.

***Update /etc/modprobe.d/ralink alias for wlan*
***Install firmware in /lib/firmware...
***Check old config

Is it having problems locating the firmware; How do I update the alias.I can get online to learn. Something to not is I've tried blacklisting the drivers before installation and also after. This time I still havent modprobed rt73 from following this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1178790 nor have I plugged in my Wireless adapter during the installation phase yet.

Ubuntu :: What Happened To Enhanced Desktop Effects

Jul 28, 2011

I've read a few threads, but I'm not sure that I have found the answer. I have a Dell E4310 laptop (company issued). It comes with the Intel HD Grpahics chipset. I've read people giving it great reviews so I am hopeful.I am running Natty. My first mystery was "what happened to the enhanced desktop effects", but I found a post saying they were removed in 11.04 -- apparently they just work if your video supports it. I've installed all the compiz packages including the enhancements. I am able to go into the Compiz Settings Manager and see all the modules. I am able to turn them on and off and change the settings, but anytime I try to use any of the keyboard shortcuts nothing happens.

I'm still relatively new to the world of Linux. Can someone tell me how I figure out whether or not my graphics card can support Compiz in 11.04?

Ubuntu :: 10.04 Printing Files Takes Ages

May 23, 2010

When printing web pages or PDF files in Ubuntu 10.04 to a network printer using CUPS, files are blown out to huge sizes - over 200Mb for a 30Mb PDF document and over 70Mb for a simple web page with 6 images and some text. Its holding up everyone else in our office who, through Windows XP are printing the same files in about a 20th of the time it takes Ubuntu+CUPS. I have tried printing directly to the printer, printing through the Win2003 PDC share, printing with LPR (which coincidentally generates a bit smaller ps file) and printing with Adobe Reader instead of evince

Ubuntu :: Printing Blank Pages Of PDF Files

May 29, 2011

I am having problems in printing 'complex' PDF files. Simple pages are no problem. Good examples is Royal Mail postage printing. Generated PDF displays correctly - and in Ubuntu 10.10 printed perfectly. Since I upgraded to 11.04 I get a blank page. No matter what I do. I have tried everything suggested when I googled the problem - but no solution works. I am printing across the network through my NAS box (no changes to that at all) to an HP Laserjet 1010. It all works correctly and as expected under Windows - so the setup is fine with printer and NAS. its a problem introduced by 11.04.

CentOS 5 :: Installing Vim-enhanced On A XenServer 5 System?

Mar 30, 2009

I'm trying to install vim-enhanced on a XenServer 5 system which is supposed to use CentOS under the hood. Being a debian user I'm not very familiar with the way packages work in CentOS. The problem is that the packages manager seems to do nothing. I assume that a repository is missing but I don't know which and how exactly to add it.

Loading "installonlyn" plugin

Ubuntu :: Printing With Exact Size Photos And With Poor Auto Colour Printing But The Situation Remains Unchanged

May 31, 2010

I expected more from ubuntu 10.4 with regards to printing with exact size photos and with poor auto colour printing but the situation remains unchanged! for instance .. the photo size configurations for ubuntu/fspot/gimp and others are not compatible with my printers (HP and Brother) .. here in Europe a typical standard size photo (10x15inches or 150x100mm are not even on the Ubuntu listing? I have tried all listed possibilities including "custom" (which does not seem to ever work correctly?)and the result at best is photos with uneven boarders or at worse my printer goes a bit crazy with much wasted photo paper and expensive ink ...even photos selected for "no boarders" still produces photos with the self same uneven boarders.

I have tried pretty much everything over time following advice in this forum and including using HPlip and updating drivers required for my Brother printer but the root problem seemingly lies with the Ubunto photo size setup listing. Working with Ubuntu over the years I have found that it can do pretty much everything that Windows can do except for this dam ongoing photo quality and configuration problem.

General :: Enhanced Real Time Clock Support - Missing Kernel Option

Jul 6, 2011

In regards to compiling a custom kernel:

When using make menuconfig - under Device Drivers --> Character Devices --> there should be an option with the label "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support" (CONFIG_JS_RTC).

The problem is that this option seems to only show up while using the menu method when other options are either enabled or disabled and I've entirely forgotten what should be what. I swear fingered it out once.

This is on an older computer (P4) so HPET is no good.

You would think that disabling the HPET option would enable the RTC option but that does not appear to be the case.

I understand I can just add the option to the .config file and avoid this hassle but I'm very interested to know how to make this work.

To show my appreciation I will do something nice for you such as call you a nice name or tell you that you are pretty (or ugly if that's what you prefer).

Software :: Creating A Simple Postscript File?

Apr 4, 2011

I would like to do something that should be fairly simple but can not find a way for it.

I want to make a page in postscript or pdf format containing four lines of text and two png images.

Would you know an easy way to concatenate my text file with the two images in a ps or pdf file?

I need a solution that works via command line only as this is for a script.

I use redhat 5 for this and would prefer not having to install any extra software.

Debian :: Postscript Images - Openshot Not Working Due To Missing Dependencies

Mar 21, 2011

A day or two ago I saw a weird file in my downloads folder, and deleted it. I'm not sure why I deleted it rather than wondering why there was a weird file there, but anyway...another one has shown up.

name: datetime
type: PS document (application/postscript)

It's an image. The top part of the image shows what I was doing in a terminal last night. The bottom part shows a folder I was browsing in Nautilus. I believe the top and bottom parts are from different times. I'm a little weirded out, it's like something is taking screenshots of what I'm doing. Anyone happen to know what program created these or why?
