Okay for your explanation, nevertheless my cpu is up to 100% with gs and sed during all the tries to connect. I took this as a sign that the processing was not yet terminated.
Regarding my tries : LPD : *supported by the printer *I never achieved to print anything (even the test page) *URI after following your indications : lpd://192.168.1.117 SMB : *supported by the printer *I had to install 'samba' *After waiting several minutes, the 'workgroup' finally appeared at 'browse...' and I could find the printer *test page prints on two pages (same result on two tries): **one page with : %-123...@pjl JOB NAME="stdin" **one page almost entirely black with some vertical stripes (monochrome printing) *see [job 41] vas a color test page IPP : *supported by the printer *I had to fiddle with the URI to get some results : URI: ipp://192.168.1.117:80/ipp *works well *[job 42] the out.pnm file with Icm color corection : default.icm *[job 43] the out.pnm file with Icm color correction : file 1.icm (the one which causes problem) In short : No success in lpd : printer not seen (bad URI probably) No success in smb : garbage sent to printer (bug ?) Success with ipp which prints the file in less than 6 minutes Conclusion : Alhtough it takes an awful lot of time, the printer is now printing this image. At least two problem remain : *the socket problem *the samba problem If you feel there is a need to continue working on these items, I'll be glab to help if I can.
