Bug Description

I have bought a printer for POS thermal printer. It is a 58mm paper width printer. The manufacturer comes with linux printer drivers for cups 1.6. 1 and it should work with 1.5.2 too. I installed the printer and select the ppd files provided by the manufacturer. The installation detect the printer as usb://known/printer. When it printed the test page. The error comes out
/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastortogpt58.ppd.

I used the system ubuntu 12-04-armhf on mele . I cried to have the printer connected for 2 weeks. But it failed every single time. Finally, I tried on the system Ubuntu -12-04-LTS precise Pangolin. It worked ok. I do not know why two version of Linux have different result.

Please help.
