Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ghostscript

My printer doesn't detect for some reason until I restart CUPS, so I
ran:

'sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart'. Returned with [OK].

Then, process 'gs' (Ghostscript?) begins taking up all of my RAM (left
me at 850/1000mb RAM used, 500/600mb swap used) and my CPU usage goes to
100%. Hard drive is chugging hard. I don't know why this is happening
when I haven't even attempted to print yet.

I'm not sure if this is a problem with my printer driver or Ghostscript
(are they the same thing?). I have a Canon i860 printer plugged in via
USB.

I'm not sure which log files to add so I'll wait for some comments.
Thanks.
