After you downloaded the gutenprint tar file did you tar it and then compileit? If you did you follow the steps in the INSTALL or README files aboutrebuilding the PPD files for CUPS.Then you probably need to log on to the CUPS Page with your
browser(http://localhost:631/admin) and create the printer. You will need tobe the cups admin. You can use the lppasswd command to setup a admin ID ifyour root.
Hope this gives you some ideas.--RussThanks. I looked, and it's clearly over my head. I don't even know how to get in, so I probably should not be there.Why is gutenprint so difficult? Is it the version of gimp that Im using (
2.2.10) ? I think it might be easier to updateto a later version of gimp, than to figure out what has gone wrong here.I relly need to print, but since installing gutenprint, I cannot print anything, even from the hpdeskjet ppd.
I would appreciate any ideas as to how I should proceed.I don't know how to get into cups admin mode, and it might not be a safe thing to do anyway,Helen

Hi,

you might have more luck if you asked this on a gutenprint list. The
plug-in you are using is not developed or maintained by the people who
develop GIMP. Have you had a look at gutenprint.org?
