Looks like you want to get the 'Panasonic kx-mb2000' printer working.

I did not know what a '
Panasonic kx-mb2000' device was until a search on <Linux> - Google Search.
So!
FYI: I suggest that you look at 'How to Ask Questions the Smart Way' so in the future your queries provide information that will aid us in diagnosis of the problem or query.


CUPS or OpenPrinting would be useful sites to look at to get things installed.

Essentially a duplicate thread of:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...rivers-864292/

You didn't mention that you had found the RPMs in your other thread, but if you read the documentation on Panasonic's site, it'll tell you how to install an RPM file. Ubuntu uses .deb files, but a quick Google search for "installing rpm on ubuntu", yields lots, such as these:
