Changed to package "kdeprint" (?) and status "confirmed", because the same happens for me with a HP Laserjet 5L that has so far worked in every single distribution I was using (including Breezy).
kdeprint 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu23 cupsys 1.2.0-0ubuntu2 Furthermore there is a duplicate bug in bug #43990 (which I will mark as that), which says, that gnome-cups-manager works fine at the same time. ** Changed in: kdebase (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: kdebase => kdeprint Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed ** Bug 43990 has been marked a duplicate of this bug -- Can't add a printer in KDE: parser error? https://launchpad.net/bugs/42965 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
