Title:
  RICOH AficioSG2100N  driver not working

Status in Foomatic Database.:
  Fix Released
Status in foomatic-db package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I have a Ricoh Aficio 2100N (network connected). The RICOH
  AficioSG2100N  driver does not work: cups reports regular printing,
  confirms successful transmission to the printer, printer blinks for
  some seconds, but nothing happens. No error message.

  
  There's a (german) discussion under http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/drucker-ricoh-aficio-sg2100n-installieren/ telling that a special ipsio driver from Ricoh would be required and that this driver would require further patches.

  Maybe it's to complex for Ubuntu to support a special printer. However, it does not make sense to include a non-working ppd/driver. 

  regards
