Who can try to build new cups module from this source http://www.cups.org/software/1.7.0/cups ... ce.tar.bz2
Build repo you can find here https://github.com/willysr/SlackHacks/t ... uilds/cups

I just finished off the next version of Porteus mate desktop so i am booted in that right now. I download the source above and it configured and installed successfully. It failed once because of a bad symlink at /usr/share/doc/cups but after unlinking the symlink it installed fine. There is no DESTDIR variable so creating a module may take longer. I have no time right now but will tackle it again later.

@guys
i hope that you are aware that upgrading cups to 1.7.0 may break every app from slackware-14.1 repos depending on it?
my bet is that it's a missing driver and not outdated cups (i'm not a printing expert though).

not sure what's wrong with your setup but all effects are working here. please update your system with PSC->updater then generate xpsinfo raport.

How is the game with "PSC->updater"?

Agree 100% here with keeping older version of cups. The new version may require new backends. I have newer/newest version of cups in Fedora 20 and it is not working correctly. The page does not print or it prints garbage. Keeping functionality despite not being latest is recommended in this case Been busy to give any imput, but still to all users and developers, fanthom, brokenman, ahau, francois, hamza, wread, ..., hope I don't forget anyone here, You guys are amazing and are doing a tremendous job! Hope all developers and users have a Great Christmas and a Happy New year, Feliz Navidad y Prospero Año Nuevo, Feliz Natal e Feliz Ano Novo!
