Default Unable to print with cups

Hi all,
using NetBSD 10.0_BETA (GENERIC). No problem in installing and configuring cups but when testing the printer using the cups configuration tool (localhost:631) , I always get the following error message: Unable to print test page: No such file or directory

Used to work fine on NetBSD 9.2.

Any idea on how to solve this ? what am I doing wrong ?

Thanks,

It is a distinct possibly that you are doing nothing wrong and the version of cups you're using is broken.

Try downloading a print test page pdf:

and print it from the command line
Code:
/usr/pkg/bin/lpr test_page.pdf

This is what I get when trying:

/usr/pkg/bin/lpr: Unsupported document-format "application/pdf".
