The system is:

Linux tigaon 2.6.30-4.slh.4-sidux-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 14 01:30:37
UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

I am trying to install hp deskjet 6122 printer via cups page.
It finds a driver that has the attribute:

.. Foomatic/gutenprint-ijs.5.2

and configures it. When a test page is printed the error
message ".. guntenprint-ijs" is not installed.

What package might contain this software?

$ apt-cache search gutenprint ijs
foomatic-db - OpenPrinting printer support - database
ijsgutenprint - inkjet server - Ghostscript driver for Gutenprint
foomatic-db-engine - OpenPrinting printer support - programs
foomatic-filters-ppds - OpenPrinting printer support - prebuilt PPD files

My guess would be "ijsgutenprint".

Well, I don't use gutenprint, but I do own that printer... and I do use
CUPS.

For me, the current HPLIP and CUPS packages on Sid are working
perfectly. If you install these packages using 'aptitude', you will get
all of the stuff you need for that printer automatically:

cups
cups-bsd
hplip
hplip-gui
hpijs-ppds

I also recommend

hplip-doc

You should delete any attempts you have made to configure the DeskJet
6122 using CUPS, then configure it using HPLIP. It will automatically
find the proper PPD file ('hp-deskjet_6122-hpijs.ppd', from the
'hpijs-ppds' package) if you do things this way. (If you don't, you
deserve whatever problems result! ;-)


HTH,
Dave W.
