It appears that ghostscript on 11.3 needs to be updated to 8.71 which may resolve the issue. This is quite an annoying problem as it completely breaks printing for those several models of Lexmark printers. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Completely remove all ghostscript packages (which will also remove cups). 2. Reboot (not sure if this is necessary) 3. Reinstall the Lexmark .sh install script for my S305 printer. 4. The driver reinstall prompts for the reinstall of cups and related ghostscript packages automatically (just have to answer yes to the prompts). My printer now works fine in 11.3 with no errors or black prints. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

FYI: Regarding "black page prints errors" see bug #603131 for which a ghostscript-library package update is available in our openSUSE:11.3:Update package repository. I think this is all caused by bugs in the CUPS raster driver in Ghostscript which should all be fixed via bug #603131 To verify that you have the ghostscript-library package update actually installed on your system, run rpm -q --changelog ghostscript-library | head and you must get: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * Fri Jul 09 2010 werner@suse.de - Backport change from SVN repository to avoid reading gs_init.ps from current workiung directory (bnc#608071) * Tue Jul 06 2010 werner@suse.de - Fix the fix for bnc#592279 as this had broken hplib (bnc#603131) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 603131 *** http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=603131 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
