I use up-to-date Debian testing (wheezy) with the amd64 architecture. I
have a HP LaserJet Professional P1102w printer. I have tried many (probably
too many) things to try to get this printer to work. When I boot to my
Windows 7 disk, the printer works.
When I submit a print job by "lpr text.txt", it is not printed. The
screen at "http://localhost:631/jobs/" shows:
ID Name User Size
HP_LaserJet_Professional_P1102w-44 Unknown Withheld 1k
Pages State
Unknown stopped "/usr/lib/cups/filter/texttopdf failed"
In /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, I set "LogLevel debug" and tried to print
something. I send the error_log to the CUPS people at
http://www.cups.org/newsgroups.php?gcups.general. In that group Michael
Sweet pointed out the following lines in the error_log file.

He said:
It looks like texttopdf is aborting because it can't find a font (or
something).
Contact the OpenPrinting folks who maintain this software...
The OpenPrinting forum accessible through
http://www.openprinting.org/printer/HP/HP-LaserJet_Pro_P1102w
"is down for maintenance".
Therefore I am trying Debian.
