#5 epl_test.sh output

Actually the epl_test.sh script is only for internal testing - it doesn't try to print. You should use either ps2epl (after editing) or ps2epl.pl (just run it plain to see usage and supplies some of the arguments). Closing this. If you are still stuck after a trying those, please open new ticket. Read FAQ/etc before doing so.

PS2EPL Problem

bernix — Thu, 26 Jan 2006 23:44:48 -0000

Hello Everyone.

I was just in the installation process of the driver.
I downloaded and compiled the package (0.4.0) .

When i try to test the converter using ps2epl, i get
the following output:
-----------------------------------------------------
neptune:/home/bernix/epson/epsoneplijs-0.4.0# ./ps2epl
epl_test.ps

***** Printer: "EPL6200L" *****

***** Paper Size: "a4" *****

***** using parameters:
"EplDpi=300,EplRitech=on,EplDensity=3,EplTonerSave=on,EplFlowControl=off"
*****

getting page header
Segmentation fault
neptune:/home/bernix/epson/epsoneplijs-0.4.0#
ijs_server_get_page_header failed: -2
-----------------------------------------------------
So of course, i get an empty output file.

I tried:

* Changing the printer model from within the ps2epl script
* Using many different ps files
* Upgraded my gs version from 8.01 to 8.15

The distro is Debian Sarge (2.6.8-2-386).
Any futher information you need plese let me know and
i'll be glad to provide it.

I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance

6200L flow control problem (bug?)

Anonymous — Wed, 04 May 2005 11:54:16 -0000

Hi.
First of all I want tell you a big "thank" for these
drivers.
Now the problem (sorry for my ugly English).

I've brought an EPL-6200L and use it with Linux
2.6.11.2, CUPS and your driver.
I've obtained well-printed pages either with usb
(kernel) and with parport (libieee, kernel). I was very
happy, so I try for the flow control support. I
discovered the problem with Ghostscript (yes, I use
Debian) so I downgraded gs at 6.06 (maybe...).

The problem is that during print process (1000k job, 26
pages) some part of the pages are "skipped"; it seem
that the communication with the printer loss some bytes
at every time a chunck of epl file is sended to the
printer.
If I print with ps2epl command (without CUPS) I see
some errors even with "small jobs" (one page), but the
print is fine.

I ask you
a) can you help me?
b) if yes, what kind of informations do you need
(versions, logs, etc)?
c) I'm a few skilled in C programming with Linux. Can I
help you (ahem... I'm NOT very skilled...)?

Thanks a lot,
Enrico.

USB works with my EPL5900L

Anonymous — Wed, 29 Jan 2003 03:00:51 -0000

Hello,
hmmm i just tried to print the EPL file through USB and it
worked for me!
I just tried to print the epl_test file that comes with your
software... to do so first i created the EPL file with ps2epl and
then sent it to the printer with the command

cat epl_test.epl >/dev/usb/lp1

and it worked perfectly.

I have Mandrake 9.0

Bye and thank you,
Luca [luca-t (at) libero (dot) it]

P.S.: Any idea how to make it work with CUPS too?
