[cups.general] lexmark 1000 - no output on ubuntu

[Till Kamppeter]

I have made a distribution-independent driver package of "lm1100" now. 
Please go to

http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Lexmark-1000

and click the "driver for:" link for your system architecture in the box 
at the top. Then follow the instructions following the "How to install" 
link.

Make sure you use the PPD coming with the driver package (you could 
delete /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/driver/lm1100.xml to eliminate the 
system's PPD).

Now you should be able to print.
