The initial bug reporter has a HP LaserJet 4 Plus (4+), according to www.linuxprinting.org this is both a Postscript and PCL5e printer and the Postscript driver is the recommended driver. Since I don't have this printer model I can't judge if this information is correct.
The HP LaserJet 4L has recommended driver ljet4 since 20050106: 2005-01-06 Till Kamppeter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * printer/HP-LaserJet_4L.xml, printer/Kyocera-FS-6500.xml, printer /Kyocera-FS-6500plus.xml, printer/Ricoh-Aficio_401.xml, printer/Okidata- Super_6e.xml, printer/Okidata-OL410e.xml, printer/Canon-LBP-430.xml, printer/HP-LaserJet_5L.xml, printer/HP-LaserJet_6L.xml, printer/HP- LaserJet_5P.xml, printer/HP-LaserJet_3P_w_PCL5.xml: Changed recommended driver from HPIJS to "ljet4". These printers do only 300 dpi or work better with 300 dpi than with 600 dpi and with 300 dpi "ljet4" gives the better output quality. ** Changed in: gnome-cups-manager (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: gnome-cups-manager => foomatic-filters-ppds -- HP Laserjet 4 Plus has Postscript driver as default, which is incorrect https://launchpad.net/bugs/3020 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
