Bug Description
Binary package hint: splix
Hi, this may be related to the splix package. In the last few versions of Ubuntu prior to Intrepid I've had no problem using this printer. However with Intrepid I've started having problems.
In the printer properties there's an error next to Printer State:
Stopped - Filter "rastertospl2" for printer "ML-2010" not available: No such file or directory
There are no messages in /var/log/
Sep 4 10:14:31 matts-laptop hal_lpadmin: Printer ML-2010 exists but is disabled, reason: Filter "rastertospl2" for printer "ML-2010" not available: No such file or directory; use 'cupsenable ML-2010' to enable it

Possibly related to:
bug #193075 (here on launchpad) or maybe

It is indeed the same problem as described by bug 193075. Marking as duplicate.
