[Bug 58908] Re: HP PSC 2110 printer PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=PCL3GUI

[Till Kamppeter]

This is not a bug in Ubuntu. It is wrongly configured. What you are
doing is to let the client convert the PostScript coming from the
applications into PCL and this is sent to the server which assumes it to
be plain text and tries to convert it to PCL again, and the result on
the paper looks like if you open a PCL file with a text editor.

In a network environment with CUPS the printer filters and drivers are
always only on the server.

The easiest should be to have the following lines in the server's
/etc/cups/cupsd.conf:

Browsing On
BrowseAddress @LOCAL

and to restart the CUPS daemon there.

THe client's /etc/cups/cupsd.conf should contain:

Listen *:631
Browsing On
BrowseAllow @LOCAL
BrowseDeny All
BrowseOrder deny,allow

Restart the CUPS daemin on the client(s), too. Remove your print queues
for the PSC 2110 from your clients. Wait for 30 seconds and the server's
print queue should automatically get visible on the clients.
