There was all working in SuSE 11.2 with the identical .ppd-file (uncompressed and compressed).
New version: instead of .PS-output plain text:
It would nice to distribute the .ppd-file for the FS-C5100 .. C5400 as usual
HUE3,0;@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=POSTSCRIPT .... (and so on)
Test of Driver:
FS-C5100DN.ppd.gz: PASS
WARN Non-Windows PPD files should use lines ending with only LF, not CR LF!
WARN Non-standard size name "OficioII"!
REF: Page 187, section B.2.
WARN Non-standard size name "P16K"!
REF: Page 187, section B.2.
(I've tried different variants of the original file, packed and unpacked, standard and original naming - no difference. Some boots of system)
Error tracing was giving:
