Hi All,

I have recently bought a new Xerox Phaser 3117 laser printer for my office. The
advertisement and the printer brochure all were loudly claiming Linux support
and full compatibility and I gladly bought it.

Tried installing the printer on my office PC running Mandriva LE 2005. The
printer was auto detected but the model was not listed. Infact none of the
models from the Phaser range is listed in the driver database on Mandriva.

Next I tried following the instructions given in user manual. To my
disappointment the file 'setup.sh' is missing from the software CD that came
with the printer. Though the CD face clearly mentions both Linux and Windows on
it. I wrote to the company, but did not receive any reply back.

Tried a lot of different things, but could not make the printer to work. Has any
one got any idea on what to do now or experience with this printer model. Please
let me know if anyone can help.

Cheers,
-Tarun
