I have has issues with a certain printer while other worked fine.  The 
issue was that the laser printer was "stuck" printing in the 4 page per 
sheet mode, but would only print one of the very small pages per sheet, 
instead of 4.  I never used that mode before. The other printers would 
print normally.  The only other time was when a printer would bot duplex 
print when it did a few days before.  Both needed the user config folder 
to be recreated. For some reason, sometimes a "gremlin" decided to mess 
up one of the config files and I cannot find where it was mess with.  So 
recreating the folder works.  I just then have to add the extensions 
needed.  No problems there.

I never had any luck with finding a Dell printer driver for Ubuntu, or 
at least the ones I have had given to me to "pass on to others if 
needed".  So I stick with HP and Canon [need to go to the UK site since 
the US site does not support Linux].
