I am attempting to get a Dell P713 printer working with my Ubunut desktop. I installed the drivers
from here. I encountered an issue with the install, but was able to work around it by following
this article.
The drivers appear to have installed successfully. I can now get the system to recognize my printer. However, whenever I attempt to print a test page, I receive an error. The diagnostic output, in part, follows:
