LBP2900B on rpi stuck in sending data to printer #36

I have an old LBP 2900 and need to be able to print to it form a number of computers of various OSes and I was quite excited to find this project.

Compilation on rpi worked like a charm.

I have "installed" rastertocapt by providing a symlink to /usr/local/bin/rastertocapt which sorted out the error message in the logs

However my printer does not seem to want to print anything. It is stuck in "Sending data to printer".

I have enabled debug logs in cups, but found no obvious reason for it to not work.
Restarted printer, cups service, rpi - no luck

Any help will be appreciated. I am not a big specialist in cups, but quite a confident Linux user with programming knowledge, so can conduct quite a few experiments of someone can guide me.

Which PPD are you using?
Did you enable debug printout? Did you read CUPS logs?

Was it possible to see the last message sent to the printer and the printer's reply to it?
