[newbie] Need Printer Help ...

2000-09-18 Thread Mary-Carol Thompson

Hello folks!

Is there no one who knows how to configure an machine running
linux-Mandrake 7.0 to print postscript files on an EPSON STYLUS Color 740
printer? 

I wrote more than 3 days ago, but not one person has addressed the problem,
so I guess not many people are dealing with Epson printers. 

Please write if you do know. 

Mary.

Is your printer up and running now?

I have a Stylus 850 that was automatically recognized by LM7.1.  It set up
ghostscript which is used to handle postscript files.

Mary,

Have you checked the Mandrake sites' HCL list yet to see if indeed that
printer is supported by Linux Mandrake. If you can find that printer on
that list then there's a real good chance you're going to also be able to
get help getting it to work.

I'm not sure whether or not you will be able to get it to work. Another
thing you might try is searching the lists archives to see if this subject
has been discussed before. There again if this is the case then you stand
a real good chance of find the answers to the questions you're looking
for.

good luck...
