Interesting development, I logged into the CUPS admin page from the karmic machine, tried to print a test page, received a CIFS error (I was expecting this since the config is for the Windows system this machine dual boots with) but Firefox indicated a printer driver was missing (!!), printer configuration loaded, then asked me to run through the wizard to add a printer. My printer was not listed, tried something similar, and added succesfully, but a test page did not print.
I'll try getting printer drivers for this and trying to install. But why was the via cups method capable of determining the missing drivers and not the regular configuration tool? -- USB Printer detected but cannot add to configuration or print https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/489725 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
