[gentoo-user] Smart Label Printe SLP 650

Is anybody using Smart Label Printer SLP-650 with Gentoo?

The cup driver recognized the printer and install it but it is not printing anything, I'm getting:

SII_SLP650	SII SLP650	office	SII SLP650/SLP650SE, 1.8
Idle - "File "/Library/Printers/SII/rastertosiislp.app/Contents/MacOS/rastertosiislp" not available: No such file or directory"

This error comes from ppd driver that came with the printer.

Hi Joseph.  I'm replying only because nobody else has.  I'm no cups expert, but my gut
reaction would be to install net-print/gutenprint.

If that doesn't work, at least it didn't cost you anything but
a bit of disk space  :)

Thanks for suggestion, it is not helping. The printer just advances the labels, it doesn't print anything on it.
