I have an Epson Stylus 670 printer and it has suddenly stopped printing from Mandrake (although it will still print correctly from other distros). I haven't altered anything since it printed correctly in Mandrake yesterday!
I have tried Open Office, Abiword, KWord, KWrite and printing from a terminal. None will print :-(
This is the error message I get:
A print error occurred. Error message received from system:

Can anyone help, please?
Many thanks

use cups to re-start the print server.
If you are using KDE, open the menu, configure, printing, cups WWW admin, admin, manage printers, start printer.
You might need to check 'jobs' first and remove any that are stuck in
there, if so, you may not need to go into admin.
Many thanks for your help, PM. The printer is now working.
I followed your instructions and started the printer - nothing. So I clicked on Accept Jobs and it sprang into life. However, I probably needed to start the printer as you suggested, before telling it to accept jobs.
Thanks again.
Cheers
Keith
