Mike, I wish I'd known that trick before! I used a 5250 for several years,
and pretty frequently would get errors trying to print anything with
graphics. It started to misfeed, so I got an OKI DataMC362W, color LED,
duplexer, scanner/printer. (It probably has fax, too, but I don't need
that.)

I'm running opensuse 13.2, and I downloaded the drivers off the UK or
Australia sites -- the US one didn't have the same linux drivers available.
