You mean the printer? It is the printer here at IETF terminal room. I
have no problem printing to it with enscript from my F20 notebook via cups.
If you mean the server I am trying to print from? Well that is in part
the question. Am I missing something that did not get installed with
cups and hplip, or is there a bug for me to run down, as the server is
running f21 beta.
I can't yet take this to f21 bugs, as I just don't know where to
troubleshoot it to get the information to put into a bug report other
than printing is failing with 'Filter failed'.
Remember that I said system-config-printer remote was able to print the
test page through the server to the printer. It is when I use enscript
via command line on the server that I get the failure.
I use enscript to print text file documents (e.g. IETF RFCs) in a nice
way, so I am familar with it. If there is something simpler for me to
test with, I am all for that.
If you do not know what you're missing, rather go with a full set of tools. *After*
you identify all the necessary elements, you can install the same in the minimal
environment.
