Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-cups-manager
I downloaded and installed driver for lexmark c522n color laser network printer by executing the install script and added printer to foomatic-db. The installer asked for language and encoding, I used german and utf-8.
After that I tried to add the printer. It was automatically detected but after finishing the dialogs, no printer was added. i tried that several times, also with ip-adress, name and different protocols (the c522n supports nearly all of them). No printer added, no errors in the syslog.
Then I use the hpijs driver, which works well but only b/w. No success with the lexmark driver

To post a comment you must log in.
Since your printer supports PostScript it should be enouh to install the PPD file that is in the linux driver package that can be downloaded from the Lexmark website.
You can install the PPD file by clicking "Install driver ..." in gnome-cups-add.
