I'm not familiar with Puppy Linux, but perhaps going to the following address would help: http://localhost:631/

jundcb:

Try this 3119 driver for Linux:
http://www.support.xerox.com/go/resu..._gb&Xcntry=GBR

It contains needed files to run.

Read documentations first. Installing drivers under linux is different from what we used to do in MSwindows.

Concerning CUPS on puppy you may read this:

Hope it helps. Goodluck.
