What could be causing the Unable to open raster stream -: Broken pipe error when printing via CUPS?
All the best!
I'm trying to attach a Custom VKP 80 thermal printer to Linux (slax linux) via CUPS. I downloaded the driver, installed it, even added a printer, but it refuses to print :(
Status : stopped "Fillter failed" and the actual error log:
