      Hi.

      My name is Jose, i am a very newbie FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE user
     from Spain. This is my first message to the list. i hope my
    participation can be useful for others. Like many newbies, i
    come from Linux world.

      Well, i am trying to use the CUPS 1.1.19 for get print with
    my small printer. I use CUPS with my other computer (Linux) and
    the Stylus Color works well. I have this packages installed:

    cups-1.1.19.0
    cups-base-1.1.19.0
    cups-lpr-1.1.19.0
    cups-pstoraster-7.07
    ghostscript-gnu-7.07_3

      I got configure my printer without any visible problem, but
    maybe it don't be so easy like "install packages and run".

      From all aplications that can print, when i open the print dialog
    i can see my printer ready and waiting for jobs, when i push the
    print button i don't get any error or problem message.... but the
    printing don't happen. From the web administration page of CUPS i
    can see my printer, ready, but if i try print a test page i don't
    have response.

      In the "Jobs" menu i see that there are not active jobs, i go to
    "Show completed jobs" and i see my jobs "cancelled at Sat Dec 6.."
    I try to do "Restart Job" and then i get:

    "Error: client-error-not-possible".

      What can be the possible causes for this?. Maybe can are there
    any missing file(s)?. Where can i find specific documentation
    about "Configure CUPS in the FreBSD system"?, i tried the Proyect
    official web site, but i don't found any related with this. Too
    tried the CUPS official site http://www.cups.org but i can't see
    nothing specific about FreeBSD.

      Please, help me.

      Thanks you very much, in advance.

      Regards.

      Jose.
