Select "multifunctional products" and Aficio FX16 |
| 11 |
This finally to a page where you can download the |
| 12 |
'Printer & Scanner Drivers and Utility' for WINDOWS. |
| 13 |
Download the .exe file e.g. for Windows XP. |
| 14 |
Most probably it's a zip archive. Try (on Linux) |
| 15 |
unzip -v <this .exe file> |
| 16 |
If it works, you only need the .ppd file which is an |
| 17 |
ASCII file. Copy this to your cups directory |
| 18 |
probably /etc/cups/ppd |
| 19 |

IMPORTANT: send a complaint to Ricoh for not supporting |
| 21 |
Linux directly! |
