Tried all the solutions above including editing package status file but to no avail. Printer gets recognized under printer applet but no printout sadly. This is with my L800 thats working perfectly under 14.04.4LTS

I see two possible solutions: - Add a proper replaces field to one of the remaining lsb-* packages, to hopefully fix missing lsb package (maybe it would be useful to also replace other compability packages that are not built anymore). - Re-introduce LSB compatibility packages, but that might be an overkill.
