I am using 12.04 on a Windows network and this is what worked for me:
Ubuntu will search for drivers, but eventually will ask you to provide a PPD. Navigate to the downloaded driver file and install:
423_Series_Linux_v10000.0000/CUPS1.2/English/KO423UX.ppd
Ignore the installable options (paper source unit, etc) and click OK - you can come back to them later if needs be.
lpd://192.168.1.3/print
. You may need to replace192.168.1.3
with whatever your printer's IP address is, but once I got this right it was printing.
