Minolta/QMS use oddball drivers on their ethernet printers that may cause some problems. As always, "Win" devices are a loose, but generally would have parrallel interfaces anyway. The SS2 serial port maxes out at 19200 baud. For a cheap printer, see if you can find a Laserjet 3 with jetdirect card or a Laserjet 4M on the used market. The 2100TN is a more recent replacement. SBUS parrallel port cards do exist, but probably arn't worth the effort. -- Blars Blarson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.blars.org/blars.html "Text is a way we cheat time." -- Patrick Nielsen Hayden
Re: Printer for SS2
Practically, any laser printer works fine with cupsys under Debian GNU/Linux. Look at www.cups.org in order to see if there are laser printers not "workable". I have a HP LaserJet 2100 and it is working fine using the cupsys drivers. Also look at Debian Packages to see the cupsys packages you'll need to download.
