Create a virtual printer



Hi,

iMac G5
mac os 10.4.3

I'm trying to create a virtual printer. Here is the process that I follow:
1- Launch Printer Setup Utility
2- Press "Add"
3- Select "IP printing"
4- Create the printer with the following parameters
* Protocol: IPP Printing Protocol
* Address: localhost
* Queue:
* Name: My Virtual Printer Name
* Location:
* Print via: Generic Postscript Printer
The field names may be incorrect since I translated them; sorry for that.
5- Press "Add".


Now, when I'm trying to print any document with this printer, the document stays in the queue, and the printer is seen as "stopped" in the printer list viewed in the Printer Setup Utility. If I try to relaunch the printing, the printer stops itself after a few seconds and the document is still in the queue.

What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers,

Ivan
