Hi, Lately I have been noticing some strange behavior from CUPS. The printer is a HP3600DN, and I am printing to it using its built-in ethernet port. Some details on this printer here: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-Color_LaserJet_3600
I have the HPLIP 3.9.2-3() and hpijs (3.9.2-3) packages installed. When using the HPLIP driver, and printing from 'lp' I get the following PCL error when a PDF file contains rotated pages: PCL XL Error: Subsystem: KERNEL Error: IllegalTag Operator: 0x00 Position: 2 When I print the same PDF from 'xpdf' it works as expected, however the type is somewhat degraded. I have heard that xpdf is using 'pdftops', while CUPS (lp) uses 'pdf2ps' for the conversion (I think). So far I get the best quality printing using 'lp' (CUPS). Does anyone have any UNIX/CUPS/HP related wisdom to share? Thanks in advance!
