Problems with Epson Stylus DX4400

Post by bull »

Hello all, I downloaded the turboprint but I do not managed to print!

I have Ubuntu 7.04

I start the printer correctly plugged (the printer works fine in windows), it is shown from lsusb as:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04b8:083f Seiko Epson Corp.

The printer is correctly detected by turboprint
When I try to print a test page it says it couldnt finish the job. When I have a look to the /var/log/turboprint_cups.log I got:

Code: Select all

Then I see that the printer automatically swiched off, so I have to start it again and I keep getting the same problem.

Any ideas?
