Sorry Rolf, I don't know what was there when I filed the report; was it November 2009? It was an old laptop (old enough to have a parallel port), dual booting Win-XP and Ubuntu. XP broke itself, so I reinstalled everything, and I haven't so far since had the need to get the printer working.
We're currently touring Italy, but if it's important, I can try setting up the printer again, checking what modules are loaded, when we get back to the UK.
