I've got the LBP2900 working in Ubuntu 14.04.
1. Download Linux capt driver version 2.60
2. Extract it into download folder and opened the folder for 32 bit, as my installation is 32 bit:
downloads linux capt... 32 bit driver debian
3. After that double click on the files, the Ubuntu software center opens and asks to install it. Install
both the files one by one, second one first.
4. Install the following additional packages from the Ubuntu software center: portreserve,
gsfonts, gsfonts-other, gsfonts-X11.
5. Restart the printer
service cups restart
6. Add your printer and start the printer daemon:
sudo /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p LBP2900 -m CNCUPSLBP2900CAPTK.ppd -v
ccp://localhost:59787 -E
sudo /usr/sbin/ccpdadmin -p LBP2900 -o /dev/usb/lp0
sudo service ccpd start
sudo service ccpd status
7. Check the function of the printer:
captstatusui -P
LBP2900
this will popup a new window. If the message is "Ready to print", you are done. If the message
is error of no printer connected etc., restart the operating system and repeat the steps five to
seven, and it will start.
Sometimes it may stop working after restart, then run
sudo service ccpd restart
