= Konica Minolta (bizhub) C360 printer =

== Situation ==
The driver distributed by Konica Minolta (from 2011-11-08) uses Postscript to communicate with the printer.

Sadly this driver only works for Cups's printing test page. Other input (from [[http://libreoffice.org|LibreOffice]] or others) can cause the printer to reboot. If you are slightly less lucky then the printer will just hang infinitely and ignore any further network communication or direct input via its touchscreen.

Thus it seems that the Postscript interpreter of that printer implements only a small subset of the postscript language properly.

== Solution ==
The most basic solution is to use the generic PCL 6 driver shipped with [[http://cups.org|Cups]].

 Manufacturer:: Generic
 Driver:: Generic PCL 6/PCL XL Printer Foomatic/plxcolor

The most important features are working:
 * colored and grayscale printing
 * duplex printing

Probably you will want to choose ''automatic'' as the default paper feed. Otherwise the manual input tray on the right side of the printer is be selected by default.
