I'm running Mepis 6.5.02, dased on Ubuntu Dapper.
cups version 1.2.2

I installed the driver as per instructions, added the printer with the kde printer control center - the CLP-300 was not a choice before install ing the driver, so it looks like that part went ok. Test page prints, but only in monochrome.

cups will not accept any changes to the printer setup, it asks for a username and password, it won't accept root or user names/passwords.
Trying to print a test page from cups results in:

Error:Quota limit reached.

I installed gnome-cups-manager, and all its dependencies, it runs ok, allows me to change from monochrome to color, but still prints a monochrome test page.

Any help with this appreciated, thanks.

I love answering my own posts...

In the kde printer control panel - right-click on the CLP-300 entry, the configuration screen comes up, all parameters, including color/monochrome selection are accessible - chose color, all is good!!

I think it's a keeper!!
