Package: hpijs Version: 2.8.6.b-4 Severity: normal Printing a postscript file fails with the following error message: "unable to SetPixelsPerRow width=4800, err=26" and the printer LCD screen indicates "CHOSEN PERSONALITY NOT AVAILABLE". The printer is a HP Color LaserJet 3600N, and is ethernet connected. The ghostscript invocation looks like this: gs -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -r600 -sDEVICE=ijs -sIjsServer=/usr/bin/hpijs -sDeviceManufacturer=HP -sDeviceModel='HP Color LaserJet 3600' -dIjsUseOutputFD -sQuality=600ColorCYMK -sPrintoutMode=Normal -sOutputFile=%pipe%'lpr -Phpc' - (the pipe through lpr passes a "raw" stream to the network address)
WORKAROUND: downgrade hpijs to 2.6.10+1.6.10-3etch1_amd64, the last version on the Etch 4.0r6 release, and leave everything else at Lenny 5.0. Printing to this device now works normally with no error or warning messages. Possibly(?) helpful debug info -- I've "printed" the same source postscript file, through ghostscript+hpijs, and saved the generated output file. Here are the header portions of such a file from the good (2.6.10) and bad (2.8.6) versions of hpijs. Successful print, header generated by hpijs=2.6.10 :: <esc>%-123...@pjl SET STRINGCODESET=UTF8 @PJL SET COPIES=1 @PJL SET DUPLEX=OFF @PJL SET RESOLUTION=600 @PJL SET TIMEOUT=90 @PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=PCLXL ) HP-PCL XL;3;0;Comment, PCL-XL JetReady generator ....binary data follows here.

The difference in the RESOLUTION parameter jumps out, as well as the PCLXL vs. PCL LANGUAGE parameter. It is as if the -r600 parameter passed to ghostscript was ignored, or the "DeviceModel" was not recognized and some other default device was substituted.
