Kernel (uname -r):
Distribution: SuSE 10.0



New driver available at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/m2300w/

This driver works good, no better or worse than the Windows XP driver.

Only one problem: There is a slight misalignment of printed text. It may be my printer or it might be the driver, I have not really looked too deep into this issue.

A little bit difficult to use non-standard page sizes, but otherwise pretty good. Print quality is excellent.

Only complaint is that SuSE doesn't seem to want to pick up on the right .PPD file... Always defaults to the one in the cups/model/Minolta folder, which seems to have a bug that requires me to push the "cancel" button for the print to process. If I print a test page from the one in cups/model/downloaded, all is well... but even copying it to the Minolta folder causes the error... I'm sure it's easily overcome, just a matter of fiddling a bit.
