Hi All,
Have searched a while, but can't even find the relevant forum where my
problem would be best addressed.
***** Background:
Recently installed Linux Mint MATE * Qiana on my desktop and laptop (64
& 32 bit versions respectively). Have a Lexmark E230 monochrome laser
printer, which the Mint install/setup routine handled easily and
effortlessly. It prints documents perfectly, whether I'm printing PDFs
from Document Viewer, Word docs from LibreOffice, or ASCII text from the
Pluma text editor.
***** Problem:
(On the 64-bit desktop, haven't tried the 32 bit laptop.) Whenever I
print a second document, regardless of which of the above apps I'm
using, I get printer code, instead of the desired document. For instance...
PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = PCLXL
) HP-PCL XL;1;1;Comment Copyright Artifex
Software, I
(then a new page, and the full range of random ASCII characters -- e.g.
foreign letters, emoticons, etc.)
I have to turn my printer off and on, for every item I want to print. Grr.
(Note: If I'm in LibreOffice and ask it to print multiple copies, I
don't have any problems.)
***** Question:
Any suggestions on =whose= forum I should direct this problem to? e.g.
Mint, Ubuntu, Debian, CUPS, some printer driver developer group, etc.?
(Note: I've found the Linux Mint forums the worst I've ever
encountered. And I've probably used well over a dozen in the past
decade. Lots of people asking questions, and nearly zero responses from
anyone knowledgeable.)
Thanks =very= much guys,

* BTW: MATE is pronounced "MAH-tay". I have an Argentinian friend who
loves the locally-famous drink which the GUI is named after.
