What I did to get our new office MFD installed in Ubuntu
#!/bin/bash
# n.b. I haven't tested this version - see comments at https://gist.github.com/gists/962048
# download the driver rpm
wget http://download.fujixerox.co.jp/pub/exe/apeosport/c4300series/fxlinuxprint-1.0.3-2.i386.rpm
# alien will convert the rpm to a deb we can install
sudo aptitude install alien
sudo alien --scripts -k fxlinuxprint-1.0.3-2.i386.rpm
# install the deb
sudo dpkg -i fxlinuxprint_1.0.3-2_i386.deb
# now, open up the printer control panel and choose the driver for the printer (Manufacturer is listed as FX)
