I can get the USB connection to the printer working; I can even copy straight text to the printer and it comes out fine. But if I try to use CUPS driver, the test page comes out all garbled with random ASCII characters. I'm using Mandrake-Linux 7.2, and nothing is working for me. Does anybody have any ideas? -- ----- Travers Naran, F/T Programmer & P/T Meddler in Time & Space New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada, Earth, Milky Way, etc. "Stand Back! I'm a programmer!"
