My parents computer (Linux mint 13xfce with a hp psc 500 printer) has problems printing.
I have a "usr/lib/cups/filter/hpcups failed" error.
I have used the diagnose tool and pasted the output in a pastebin:
http://pastebin.com/cWj9DE9U
I do not understand what is in there, but does is has something to do with hplip?
(because of this:
118. ['\x1b[35;01mwarning: No display found.\x1b[0m',
119. '\x1b[31;01merror: hp-info -u/--gui requires Qt4 GUI support. Entering interactive mode.\x1b[0m',

126. ''],
)
from this pastebin, this is the error log:

I do not know how to solve this.
Can you help me?
Many thanks in advance.
I have read this other topic about the same error:

but I do not know if it is somewhat the same.
