@Till: You are a real helper. Thank You a lot !!!

Re: 0) I'm on Lucid. Should I download Your new packages as "proposed" or should I move to Maverick, or what else?

Re: 1) Yes, You are right. First I open the setup tool. From its printer icon, right click and I open the job viewer. It looks empty (see 3a above). If I select menu "view > completed jobs" the crash happen even if the window doesn't close, and it seems still alive. The new crash is attached here (it happens every time I follow the step written just here setuptool->job viewer->show completed jobs). "lpstat -l -o" produces no output at all.

Re: 2) I will do a separate report. Thanks.

Re: 4a/b) No "hpcups" nor "Foomatic/pxlmono" are available here. When push "change" printer brand/type, I get a tree-way switch that propose:

i) "select printer from database" = the long list shows many brand, including HP and not including Foomatic --- if I select HP there is a long sub-listing of models, including mine (1320n) and not "hplip" - if I select my model 1320n only one driver is shown, which is "HP LaserJet 1320 HPIJS 3.10.2 [en]" which is the current driver.

ii) "Provide PPD file" = a file requester is open ... I have no PPD file to provide.

iii) "Search for a printer driver to download" = if I write the real model name, the the search tool answers "With this choice no driver download will be performed. In next steps a locally installed driver will be seleced" which later leads to the usual driver HPIJS. = if I write "HPCUPS" the search tool answers "no match found". The same for "foomatic".

Therefore I'm not able to find HPCUPS or FOOMATIC.

Thank You so far.

Ciao
