The wrapper uses gs -sDEVICE=cups which is only available with cups-pstoraster espgs (gs -> espgs) and the lines 37-39, 214-215, 216-231 and 658-665 will kill the content of the pipe. The foo2hp program however cores when you enable 2 bpp (bits per plane) (not enough memory allocated) On the webpage of foo2hp the coder mentions that you shall not use foo2hp from the foo2zjs package but the "standalone" version - the source of both versions is however the same. >How-To-Repeat: install foo2zjs and cups fix foo2hp-wrapper to use espgs instead of gs and comment out the above mentioned lines (otherwise gs will stop / the pipe content will be lost and nothing will be handed to gs) install for example HP Color Laserjet 1600 in cups and set it to 2 bpp. print and watch foo2hp die... >Fix: I'd suggest to not install those two broken parts of foo2zjs. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
