So, maybe > that is where that impression comes from. I don't think that is the issue. After all, samba does not support two way communication with the printer because SMB does not. So, any network printer on a Windows network would be in the same position. As to communication, it only effects print quality in that with communication you can determine when the printer needs, say, a new print cartridge. If your printer is set up correctly (has the paper type and size you claim in your setup, and had adequate and appropriate ink) then you are set. As said elsewhere here, the specific Linux driver used for your printer is most likely the biggest variable here. -- +============================+===============================+ | Roger Oberholtzer | E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | OPQ Systems AB | WWW: http://www.opq.se/ | | Erik Dahlbergsgatan 41-43 | Phone: Int + 46 8 314223 | | 115 32 Stockholm | Mobile: Int + 46 733 621657 | | Sweden | Fax: Int + 46 8 302602 | +============================+===============================+ _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
