@ Till - I get that message when I connect the printer via USB either
when installing the driver (downloaded from Lexmark's site) or when I
have no printer installed and I just plug in the USB cable.

I get the popup saying "The action is not supported by this
backend....." seconds after connecting the printer. I then get the new
printer box up which allows me to select a printer from the database. It
goes on to say that "The foomatic printer database contains various
manufacturer provided PostScript Printer Descriptions.....". Eventually
I can pick a printer, but since my S405 is not listed that method falls
over.

There's another bunch of updates to do so I'm going to install those and
have another swing at it.I'll also review the bug link you made to make
sure that's covered.
