Care to be more specific? Nobody can help you out if you don't tell us where it fails. Do you get any errors or what? "it doesn't work" doesn't work for us.

Find your printer and install the driver. Remember if it comes with more than just a PPD like my M2400w did, you will need to usually compile and install the software helper application.

After having a crack get back to us. If you can use the CUPS web UI ( localhost:631 ) over GUI configuration apps, less things to go wrong.

If you're running *buntu Linux, install the foomatic-db-gutenprint package -- it has a big database of most common printers (except Lexmark, which apparently have zero Linux support).
