To get a more complete printer setup tool under Kubuntu, either use the CUPS web interface:
http://localhost:631/ Use your username and password when asked for. Or install the GTK version of system-config-printer: sudo apt-get install system-config-printer-gnome Then you can easily assign manufacturer PPDs to your printers. With lpadmin you have to call lpadmin -p <queue name> -P LEXT622.PPD Assigning manufacturer PPDs works only if the PPDs conform the standards. Check this via cupstestppd LEXT622.PPD For setting up your printer as a "Generic PCL 6/PCL XL printer", start your printer setup tool, click the button for creating a new printer, then choose your printer from the detected ones, after that choose "Generuc" as the manufacturer and "PCL 6/PCL XL printer" as the model. Choose at first "pxlmono" or "pxlcolor" as the driver. If this does not work, try "hpijs" or "ljet4d".
