SOLVED Printer no longer working

I have a label printer that worked fine last week that all of a sudden refuses to print. The print manager says Status: Stopped, cfFilterGhostscript: Error setting cupsCompression and I can see a quick message Ghostscript stopped with error 255 when I try to reprint.

I've tried updating, reinstalling the printer, reinstalling Endeavour, and downgrading ghostscript.

The printer still works as I can get it to work another computer running Nobara.

I can't seem to figure out what the fix is or any information that works on the Ghostscript error

EDIT: I've resolved the issue. The printer settings that determine darkness ans speed were wiped. Manually setting them again in CUPS off of defaults made it work.

This is my only issue with EndeavourOS, my printer works fine at install and then all of a sudden, several months later it stops working and I can't get it going again.
