I'm having no luck setting up an HP 3550 color laserjet. This is a cheap P.O.S. that doesn't support postscript, so it needs to use a rasterizer, like ghostscript.
I ran the printer configuration utility and didn't find HP 3550 in the list of printers, bad sign. So I went to linuxprinting.org, checked the specs that said the printer works perfectly, and downloaded a PPD file. After installing the PPD, the printer showed up in the config list.
John,
How did you install the ppd so that it showed up on the config list. I have several HP ppds to add as well as some LEXMarc ppds.
"Install PPD" is a menu selection in the printer configuration tool. I selected it and it asked for the filename of the PPD and installed it.

John
