[Bug 978506] Re: Lexmark Optra E does not print greyscale with hpijs driver

 

I believe the best default driver for this printer is the Gutenprint
driver. the only thing that needs work is apparently the tray selection
mechanism.

Title:
  Lexmark Optra E does not print greyscale with hpijs driver

Status in HPLIP:

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Lexmark/Lexmark-Optra_E

  On an up-to-date lucid system, the Lexmark Optra E laser printer does
  not print greyscale with the recommended hpijs-pcl5e driver.  I also
  tried the latest version from above URL and the result is still the
  same.  The gutenprint driver does support greyscale but does not
  correctly work with tray selection when an external paper cassette is
  used.
