Well, Marcia, I think we ought to quit wasting ink. Seems our Epson printers
are also broken in 8.0. Mandrakesoft is being a little too quiet about these
problems people are having. Anyway, our choices - buy a HP, go back to 7.2,
or do without a printer until maybe it's fixed in 8.1.
P.S. I asked this question in a couple of newsgroups and never got any
answers on how to fix, only confirmation from others that their epsons are
doing the same thing. So it's not just us. :-( We are as they, sol.

Dear All, I am still having the same problems with the printer. When I try to
use calibrate-gimpprint nothing will print out, so I cannot calibrate
anything yet. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Marcia
