I've encountered the problem with 5.0 on Red Hat 7.0, so you may not see
it at all. On the other tentacle, I don't know if they support CUPS. You
can change the command line at will, so if they don't, you can probably fi
that quickly. they spit out postscript or HP PCL (your choice), you take
it from there.
I woul say, try it and see what happens. The tech support has been
excellent, much better than I have seen for far more expensive products.
