Question: Why is this driver in play? Even if the physical printer is an HP, it is neither connected to Janus, nor Athena. No, it's not. But the windows printer driver expects the client to do all the rendering and deliver only finalized printer instructions when it receives network jobs. I suppose I could change it to a generic PostScript driver and tell Windows to do the rendering...

I suggest you configure CUPS in Janus to use a different print driver: First try 'IPP everywhere' the latest /driverless/ printing option. With 'IPP everywhere' CUPS will communicate with IPP enabled printers and interrogate them on the fly to generate and use the requisite PPD capabilities configuration. Hmmm. Didn't see IPP everywhere as a "driver" but i really didn't look past the HP drivers. But I question if even that will work. Sounds like when Athena tries to render the page into printer instructions it's dying, with the cupsRasterOpen failed (and what kind of an error message is that? Tell me something I might be able to use to FIX the issue!). If this doesn't work, then try 'RAW' and leave it to Athena's CUPS server to submit the raw data for printing to its back end (Windows Printer via SAMBA). The logs should indicate if there is a problem somewhere along the chain. I'll try this and let you know.

Re: [gentoo-user] why both /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 on a 64bit system?
I think there will always be some things that want /usr/lib. That said, I'm guessing you started with a no-multilib tarball? Frankly, I find there's still too many programs that want 32bit libraries to go full no-multilib. Maybe in a few more years as the last of the 32bit only machines die off and are replaced with 64 bit machines.

I did a debug and even the highest log level, but this is so early in the process that was not much to go on.

I have some more information. If I chmod 777 on /etc/modprobe.d/zfs.conf it says options command not found, options is the first word in the file which is options zfs zfs_arc_max=0x1 Now if I put the files together on one line I get /etc/dracut.conf:install_items+= "/etc/modprobe.d/zfs.conf /etc/systemd/system/initrd-switch-root.service" dracut: WARNING: +=" ": should have surrounding white spaces! dracut: WARNING: This will lead to unwanted side effects!
