Thank you very much for answering.

That's a bit confusing, I guess I have just too few knowledge of this topic. I am using the drivers provided on openprinting.org, our institute's printers basically are:

- Infotec MP 2550
- Ricoh Afifio SP C811DN
- HP Color Laser Jet 2605
- HP Laserjet 1320
- HP Laserjet 4250
- HP DesignJet T1100 MFP
- HP DesignJet T1100ps

Should I use special drivers? If so, please let me know where to find them, thank you.
