Hey Raúl,
Check to be sure that the printer is enabled.
Go to System/Administration/Printing
double click on the printer you want to use.
select Policies
ensure that the Enabled check box is checked.
ensure that the Accepting jobs check box is checked
Then go back to the Settings page and try to print a test page. If it
fails to print in most cases the printer manager will provide some clue
as to what the problem is. I've had problems with PP printers because
the CUPS filters were not installed under root ownership. Printer
manager will complain about and insecure filter.
If the problem is the Pport then print manager will tell you that it
couldn't find the printer attached to the port.
I fought with my PP printer for days trying to figure out what was wrong
with my Pport when the real problem was bad filter ownership. Sad part
was that print manager was telling me what was wrong the whole time. I
was just too blind to see it.
