printer Olivetti D-Copia 200MF

I just installed 10.6 on my iMac and I also have the Olivetti d-Copia 200MF. It will not print now. with 10.5 all was ok.
i've just:
"After spending a little time with the driver and logs, I found where the error was coming from. Apparently the installer uses incorrect permissions for the 10.6 CUPS printing scheme.

The permissions on /usr/libexec/cups/filter/kyofilter after install are set to the user. They should be set to root. Fixing this with 'sudo chown root /usr/libexec/cups/filter/kyofilter' in a terminal window allows me to print successfully. Its odd that the permissions repair under 10.6 doesn't see this, but it doesn't.

So, try installing the 10.5 Kyocera drivers and check your logs for CUPS in the Console. If you see a file permission error in the error log, then this may fix it for you. ."
and in fact my kyocera now work, but what i've to do with my olivetti d-Copia 200mf ?
thank's

Imac, Mac OS X (10.6)

I don't think that Repair Permissions bothers with any files that are not provided by Apple. Repair Permissions looks to the data in the package receipt for certain Apple packages to determine the correct permissions. It then compares these values to the file installed on the system and makes the necessary corrections.

Even if Repair Permissions used all the installed package receipts (Apple and non Apple software), the permissions would not have been repaired in this instance. The permissions would have been wrong in the receipt. Next, consider the software that does not use the Apple standard installer. They leave no receipts behind that could be used to determine what the permissions "should be".
