Trouble with printer driver (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hi,

I just can't get my printer (Dell 3330dn) to work properly under Linux with the generic drivers. That's why I went for a hunt to find the PPD files. The Dell webpage even has a section offering downloads for Linux. But when I unpacked the .zip, there was no PPD file, even when it was stated in the description. Am I blind? Or are the files in a format I don't recognize?

Is you're printer on the same Wifi as your computer?
