Comment 22 for bug 877958

Hi Robert,
I built cups from svn as you suggested, but when I do a print test page, I still got the "Unable to get printer status" message.

Here's what I did :
svn co http://svn.easysw.com/public/cups/branches/branch-1.5/
cd branch-1.5
autoconf
./configure
# at this point when I tried to compile I got errors - warning treated as error. So I removed the -Werror compiler flag
make
make check
# checked results of tests, all passed
sudo make install
# at this point I opened up the Printing from the System Settings app and selected my Epson printer and sent a test page.

Cheers,
Paul
