Okay, so I grabbed the foomatic kit for this printer and got it working ... kinda. I can print some things but it's erratic at best. I'm able to print out of OpenOffice Writer with some success, but usually it just sits there and does nothing. When I look at the job queue though CUPS, it says the jobs's there, but nothing's happening - in fact I let it just sit there over night and nothing happened.
I have a Lexmark Z51 which also *kinda* works under linux (B&W is fine; color dodgy). I've also had problems with the dead printer jobs. My solution was to delete all printer profiles and start from scratch, using CUPS to install a fresh printer profile, not the gnome print manager. HTH -- Colin Brace Amsterdam
