Thanks for the report.  You have reached the GNU Coreutils mailing list.
 The GNU Coreutils are the basic file, shell and text manipulation
utilities of the GNU Operating System.  You can learn more about GNU
Coreutils here:

But you are asking about printer support.  I am sorry but this is the
wrong mailing list.  We don't know anything about that here.  We are
unable to help you here.  You are more likely to get support for
printing on Ubuntu by contacting the Ubuntu support resources.

By the way, it would be helpful to let us know what led you to choose
this mailing address as the place to send your report, in case there is
some documentation that could be patched to prevent others from making
the same mistake.
