Re: printing problems after upgrading ghostscript

[ I am posting this to the HPOJ list again ]

This is of your old HPIJS. Uninstall your old HPIJS (usually it is 
enough to delete/rename/move away /usr/bin/hpijs or /usr/local/bin/hpijs 
  Do "hpijs -h" again, you should get "Command not found". Then 
compile/install the new HPIJS with

./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

Now do "hpijs -h" again, and you should get the message of the new 
HPIJS. The new HPIJS should have installed PPD files, too. So do

killall -HUP cupsd

and re-install your print queue with the appropriate printer model entry 
labled with "Foomatic + hpijs".
