This is fron a web-friend Jeff Koenig's website (www.xtr.com/jeff) -- it is written for distros that use rpm (well,  rpm.org's rpm4 ;-) 

Anyway, you can follow these just get the non-rpm/source file 

 

Dell 1320c color laser printer Linux install
============================================
Updated: 4/19/2008

Note: this install was done on a Fedora 8 Linux installation.

Follow printer initial hardware instructions to setup printer hardware and insert paper in printer tray.

Connect printer to network with dhcp server (cable router, etc...).

Power on printer.

When printer is ready, press and hold printer "Continue" button to print settings pages to get printers DHCP assigned IP address.

To configure the printer, connect to and login to it via:
http://x.x.x.x/ where x.x.x.x is your printer's IP address.
Default printer username: admin
Default printer password: (blank/none)
Change the printer to use a static IP address instead of DHCP address.

The Dell 1320c seems to work with the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C525A printer Linux driver:

Thanks for that, but I've already tried it, didn't work for my network set up (seemed to work, the light would go green, but it wouldn't print).   I'll give it another try though, getting tired of going upstairs to plug in a USB cable to the laptop so i can print to the HP printer i've got up there.  On a side note, you can convert rpm files to .deb using alien.

 

*EDIT* looks like i forgot to change what paper tray it was meant to use, woops.  Thanks, that solution did work.
