Title: cups does not support Dell 5100cn color laser printer Status in “foomatic-db” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: cupsys I even tried adding this one manually, using the generic PostScript driver, but when the page was sent to the printer, I am only met with an "A4 Load" message when printing a test page. I also tried changing the settings to not be A4 by default, to no avail... http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/print_5100cn?c=us&l=en&s=gen Some people have claimed to got it working, but have not provided details: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=465345 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=892708 Still, even in Gutsy, there should be an entry under the Dell category for the 5100cn product, and there is not. Maybe this needs to be pulled from upstream? OpenPrinting lists a PPD and appears to be supported. http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Dell-5100CN The RPM can be found directly from Dell: http://support.us.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R165315&formatcnt=1&libid=0&fileid=222576 http://ftp.us.dell.com/printer/Dell-Laser-Printer-5100cn-1.2-1.noarch.rpm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-db/+bug/145855/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
