If you were using gimp-print and cups, it would be pretty easy I think. I have 2 printers, both epson ink squirters, and 4 actual definitions setup, 2 for each printer in cups. 1 low res for text type outputs, and one hi-res for text+photo, both in color, for each printer. To the Gimp, they are simply lp0, lp1, lp2, and lp3, and the gimp-print dialog allows you to change which printer you are using. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
