cups is working but doesnt print

Hi,

i have an ubuntu server with a printer connected and cups running. i can print on remote windows pc, but somehow my arch linux doesnt want to let me print.
i installed the printer and try to print, but the printer doesnt do anything.
The /var/log/cups/error_log and the cups webinterface however claim, that everything is working successfully (although the amount of pages is always "unknown").
The latest entry from my /var/log/cups/error_log:

D [03/Aug/2009:16:27:02 -0700] [17] = "image/x-photocd"

Any idea where else i could get some further information to fix this error?

Re: cups is working but doesnt print

i tried several, one from linuxprinters as mentioned in the arch wiki entry about cups,
i found one PPD file in a driver i downloaded. ubuntu server came along with its own driver, which works.
on the web interface under "printer driver" it says
Kyocera Mita FS-1020D

Re: cups is working but doesnt print
