Because HPLIP is not working with my printer (See ticket ​15), I try foomatic from "cups-filters-1.0.61-os2-20141011.zip" with Cups 1.4.8 (eCS 2.2 beta 2).

Driver: HP LaserJet? Pro P1606dn Foomatic/foo2zjs-z2 (recommended) (grayscale, 2-sided printing) Connection: lpd://192.168.2.101/lp1

If I send a testpage, the printer seems to get data (lights blinking), put no output comes.

I think no other protocol (ipp / HP / Socket) works with my printer. Connected to the printer via Firefox: "SLP-config., LPD-Print and WS-Discovery" are all checked.

Any idea, what to do? Any other protokoll I should try? If so, which syntax?

My "HP_LaserJet_Professional_P1606dn" should work with foomatic.

With the Driver "HP LaserJet? Pro P1606dn Foomatic/foo2zjs-z2 (recommended) (grayscale, 2-sided printing)" I get "/cups/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip.exe failed"

On Commandline I get:

[c:\cups\lib\cups\filter]foomatic-rip.exe
SYS0193: C:\cups\lib\cups\filter\foomatic-rip.exe cannot be run in a OS/2 sessio
n. "C:\cups\lib\cups\filter\foomatic-rip.exe"

Maybe because the EXE is only 27 Bytes big - there seems to be something broken. There is a second "foomatic-rip.exe" in the WPI with 37K. It is extracted to cups/bin - is this correct?

The newer foomatic-rip.exe from "cups-filters-1.0.61-os2-20141011.zip" is about 300K gives no error. There is only one foomatic-rip.exe in this ZIP, extracted to "lib\cups\filter".

So my Question: Is there a defect in "Foomatic-rip-4_0_5.wpi" and its files?

The eCS Printer Manager lacks (imho) the possibility to create a PDF writer. Having the possibility to create a PDF writer (pmpdf or ePDF) the same way as we create other writers would really help a lot. Also for customer support.
