Print color Workcentre 7120 Linux

[Joe Arseneau · Accepted solution]

To be supported by Xerox you need to have the PS kit.

You should be able to cobble together something if you know how to do PCL from Linux/CUPS.

The generic PCL available by default will work and support color, you just need to look for the "c"

Thanks for your answer Joe.

I checked if I have PS interpreter on my Xerox, but sadly I don't have this option.

So to print in color, I can use PCL stream ? Or I must have PS interpreter ?

It's a syntax error, which would imply you don't have the paid PS interpreter, and are using a PS stream.

You are going to have to print via PCL stream or buy the PS kit for the printer through your dealer/sales rep.

Hi all,

I want to print in color with my Workcentr 7120, I have read some forum on the web. I have download ppd file of Windows Xp and I have create new printer in CUPS with this ppd file. But when I try to print with this new printer, I get an error on my printer, this error is 016-749, why I mistake ?
