Printer Problem.
I have TWO problems.
First:
root@CyberSpace:/home/knoppix# cupsconfig
Starting CUPSys: cupsd.
WARNING: KDE detected X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) \x08
Major opcode: *
I get this whenever I try to print to printer (Never Prints)!
Two:
How do I start cups server on boot-up?
I didn't select it on my HDD install.
Thanks...

Part of problem solved, I got it to print.
I selected the foomatic + drv_z42 for CUPS printing.
Surprise, only foomatic was installed.
I had to go and download drv_z42.
This driver is for both Lexmark Z42 & Z43
Download:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~pastolk/drv_z42-0.3.4b.tar.gz
READ the Install in all Directorys off drv_z42!
./configure make make install
also have to build an Printer Filter.
To do that go to: /usr/local/drv_z42/src
gcc -Wall z42_cmyk.c -o z42_cmyk
cp z42_cmyk /usr/local/bin
Also below, follow these instructions.
The binaries are called:
lxaaalgn.out & lxaaalgk.out (only for Lexmark Z42 & Compaq IJ1200)
lxatalgn.out & lxatalgk.out (only for Lexmark Z43)
lxacalgn.out & lxacalgk.out (only Lexmark Z52)
There is no need to configure further if you have an USB printer, or
a bidirectional printer port. The printer is autodetected, and the
right alignment binaries are used.
If you don't have bidirectional support in your kernel, then make
links: (choose the right binaries for your printer!)
cd /usr/local/share/z42tool
ln -s lxaaalgn.out align_standard
ln -s lxaaalgk.out align_photo
Haven't solved the problem of starting Cups server at
Boot-Up.
To start Cups Server, su <password> cupsconfig , it
will popup an menu Don't Close it, go to Control center and add your printer if you haven't already. Print out
what you want and then close the menu that poped up.
Good Luck !

As root in a console dpkg-reconfigure cupsys to reconfigure the cups server.

UPDATE
Select LEXMARK Z43, CUPS+Gimp-Print v4.25 as the Driver.
Print System: CUPS
Code:
chmod 755 /dev/lp0
chmod 755 /dev/ttyS*
I also updated foomatic-bin, foomatic-db, foomatic-db-engine,
foomatic-db-gimp-print, foomatic-filters .
My Lexmark Z43 Printer works correctly now !

Great!
What's the output like? (I mean, quality, etc. -- I'm thinking of buying a cheap printer.)
