Take a look at http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi and search your printer in the database. It will also provide you with the recommended drivers and some suggestions for best performance. Install your new driver (CUPS one) and reinstall the whole printer from http://localhost:631 and taking note of your new driver which should appear from the list after installation. > > Please save me. > Thank you. > Alright.
