Do the following:
Update to the newest versions:
CUPS 22mdk, GhostScript 25mdk,
CUPS-Drivers 13mdk
AFTER doing this, do
1. ) Use the GIMP-Print driver for your BJC-6000.
2. ) Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf to have the line
LogLevel debug
Take care that you delete the hash mark ('#') in the beginning.
Restart the CUPS daemon with /etc/rc.d/init.d/cups restart.
3.) Edit /usr/lib/cups/filter/cupsomatic. The line "my $debug=0" to "my
$debug=1".
4.) Try to print again.
5.) Send me the file /tmp/prnlog, and the output which appears in the
error_log now.
