I have installed this copier on Linux Mint 13 on 17 computer with the PPD. I have a couple of computers with Linux Mint 14 and cannot get the printer to work.

I found this:
then open a browser and type in the URL bar:
localhost:631
Now you will gain access at CUPS Printer Server of your Ubuntu system.
To add a new printer, click on
ADMINISTRATION tab
Add printer
Scroll down the page and under "Other network printers" select
AppSocket/HP Jet Direct
and press Continue
Now type the IP address of your printer, like this:
socket://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
and click on Continue
Now just type the name of the Printer as you want to see it on your sistem (e.g. : Konica_C280)
and click on Continue
Now you have to choose the driver, under "Make" (I guess it's "make" in english, I see it in italian) search the list for GENERIC
and then click on Continue
And now in this other list search for Generic PostScript Level 1 Printer Foomatic/Postscript1 (recommended) , which is the one I successfully used.
Then click on ADD PRINTER.
Now that you have added the printer, click on the "Interrogate printer for default options" button on the upper left and you should now have a totally functional Konica Minolta C280 printer set up on your system.
