Just a short question: Did you install the driver for your printer? If =20= your printer's manufacturer does not supply one for Mac OS X, then you =20= can use Gimp-Print, or Gutenprint, as it's now called ("High quality =20 printer drivers for Canon, Epson, Lexmark, and PCL printers." -> = http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php=20 ; there is a list of supported printers). It's based on Ghostscript, =20 though... CUPS should be able to convert any input to the output format your =20 printer understands =96 once your printer's capabilities are known to =20= CUPS. This conversion/adaptation is the printing system's task. (Not =20 that much your's.) -- Greetings Pete Well begun is half done. =96 Optimist. Half done is well begun. =96 Realist.
