hi there,
i have an epson c62 usb printer. i used the official epson drivers for cups to install the printer and printing a test page worked. but after rebooting the system the printer doesn't work anymore. there is no error message in file "/var/log/cups/error_log". after re-installing the printer it works again but after rebooting i get the same problem again.
any solutions?
thanx and greetz,
hulk |

Is cups running?
"rc-update add cupsd default"
After cups is running you can point your browser at "http://localhost:631" to make sure cups is configured correctly. |

yes of course, cups is running and the printer is shown under the browser correctly, but printing a test page doesnt work after rebooting the pc. but cups is configured correctly
EDIT:
if i remove the printer and reinstall him, then it will work again, but after a reboot ... |
