foomatic-rip failed printing from inkscape

Asked by rickle

I posted this in the inkscape area too, not sure where it should be!
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400640

I'm using Inkscape 0.46 with Ubuntu 9.04 and an HP3600N printer printing over the network.
Printer seems to be fine printing from open office and all other programs I have tried.
the printer just prints Unrecoverable error: configurationerror in setpagedevice
also an ioerror once. The job status goes to idle stopped and a RIP error.
the printer trouble shooting log is attached.
I did get it to print just a plain circle, and changing page
size/orientation does have an affect, It seems to always print two
pages.

I think the most relevant part of log are these lines. but don't know
what to make of them.

Well, the DEVICEWITHPOINTS and DEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS (paper size) in the gs command are bogus. This will cause hpijs to fail. Most likely this is caused by bad postscript or foomatic-rip.

Can you help with this problem?
