Printer won't print

Hello,

 

I have used my printer (EPSON STYLUS PHOTO 900) in earlier versions of Mandrake with no problems whatsoever. I've never installed any drivers for it - it worked right out of the box.

 

However, with the new Mandriva 2007 i cannot print anything.

I tried reinstalling the printer and the OS successfully recognizes it and configures it and when I try to print something it says those "Page sent to printer.." confirmations and everything looks OK, however nothing actually happens.

 

When I go to the cups configuration page via the web browser the printer is named like this:

EPSONSPho900 (Default Printer) "/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed"

What does that mean?

 

I can also see here all of my print jobs with status "stopped".

 

Please help.
