Comment 2 for bug 175449

I have what appears to be the same problem. This is not a new problem in that I can remember it all the way back to at least Edgy. I'm just now getting around to reporting it. It has recently become more important to my work and I would like to see this fixed. Here are my details:

Binary package hint: eog

Gutsy 32 bit on Intel P4 based system using eog 2.20.1. When you try to print any file using a Brother HL-5050 results in the following error being printed:

ERROR NAME: ioerror
COMMAND: fill
OPERAND STACK:

The exact same images print perfectly fine using Gimp, Openoffice, Firefox or by any other means. I am using the foomatic/postscipt driver (recommended) and the printer is on parallel:/dev/lp0.

ProblemType: Bug
Architecture: Intel P4 Northwood (32 bit)
Date: Thu Dec 20 11:05:00 2007
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 7.10 (32 bit)

The one thing that really caught my eye is that the OP and I are both using Brother printers.

I'll try to provide additional information on request.
