  Since I upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 this printer has not worked well.  Sometimes it prints after repeatedly pressing the paper feed button.  I often get the error message: "missing print filter".  I have had the printer for approx. 10 years, and it worked well before 14.04.

  I have tested on a windows 7 laptop and on a mac.  Both work well.

  Conclusion: printer is working.  Someting has happened to cups or the
  cups driver for this printer.

  I have tried the Open Printing user forum and only gotten a report
  from someone with the same problem

  I attach the error log (/var/log/cups/error_log)
