Thank you for the device ID. I will add it to foomatic-db. There actual problem seems to be in the interpretation of the device ID by system-config-printer.

[Bug 821818] Re: pxlmono driver does not work with lexmark E230
The problem is that due to the Ghostscript bug the pxlmono driver is blocked in system-config-printer (put down to a very low priority, even lower than generic PPD files (and strangely enough, the pxlcolor driver did not get blocked). I will remove that priority exception, so that pxlmono PPDs get auto-selected again. ** Changed in: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/821818 Title: pxlmono driver does not work with lexmark E230 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-db/+bug/821818/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is not needed any more as the Ghostscript bug is fixed in version 9.04. So we remove this priority exception now.

[Bug 821818] Re: pxlmono driver does not work with lexmark E230
I downloaded an alpha 3, 64 bit Oneiric image and did all the updates. It did have updates for cups and related stuff. The bad: When firing off th Add printer wizard it suggests Generic goes to PCL 6 printers and lists the e230 pxlmono driver but recommends the pxcolor driver. The good: I selected the pxlmono driver, downloaded the PDF on which it usually choked and it printed fine. Note: Before updating, if I attempted to print with the pxlmono driver, it would spit gibberish on multiple pages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/821818 Title: pxlmono driver does not work with lexmark E230 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-db/+bug/821818/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

To get the automatic driver assignment correctly working, I need additional info. Can you run the following command in a terminal window and post the output here: sudo /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb This way we will get the exact printer ID so that it gets associated with its database entry. ** Changed in: foomatic-db (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/821818 Title: pxlmono driver does not work with lexmark E230 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-db/+bug/821818/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
