Printing with CUPS/hplip: PCL XL error
Hello,
I have a hp color laserjet 3600. In theory, this is supported by HPLIP.
We use a CUPS server on Debian stable. The CUPS is configured properly and we have no trouble with any other printers.
I have installed the following packages:
ii hpijs 2.6.10+1.6.10-3 HP Linux Printing and Imaging - gs IJS drive
ii hpijs-ppds 2.6.10+1.6.10-3 HP Linux Printing and Imaging - HPIJS PPD fi
ii hplip 1.6.10-3 HP Linux Printing and Imaging System (HPLIP)
ii hplip-data 1.6.10-3 HP Linux Printing and Imaging - data files
Then, I configured CUPS using the URL generated by hp-makeuri and selected the respective printer driver.
Test page from CUPS prints correctly. PostScript documents seem to work roughly OK (although duplex printing does not really work -- the printer does strange things, something to do with paper sizes and trays, but lets solve one problem at a time). However, any PDF document that I am trying to print, produces exactly one page containing the following text:
PCL XL error
Error: IllegalTag
Currently, I am using the pxljr driver for LaserJet 3550, which is nice, but does not print duplex.
Kind regards,
January
