[newbie] Printers

1999-11-27 Per discussione Christian Charles Opp 


I have a Canon bjc-4300 printer. I would like to install the
software so that I can use it. I am using Mandrake 6.0 . Anyone have an
idea on how to tackle this? I emailed Canon's tech support with my
question, and I doubt I find out anything positive. Thanks for the help.

Re: [newbie] Changing monitor settings

I have an ATI 8mb video charger and a Compaq presario 1525 monitor from
one of my older systems (1997 is the age of the monitor).
 I tried the XConfigure and I couldn't find it. So do I go into any
console and type in the code? Because I did that and it didn't work.
Anyway I'll keep looking thanks.

 XConfigurator may very well work for you.  If, like I do, you have a video 
 card or monitor that isn't supported with the current version of XFree86, 
 then it is a bit more involved.  I use xf86config which allows you to 
 manually input your vertical and horizontal sync ranges.  It is done in 
 console, so you are not using the X envirnoment.  It might be best to tell 
 us what monitor you are using and what video card for more specifics.

   When I installed linux-mandrake 6.1 it asked me what the settings were
 for the monitor. At the time I didn't know. However, now I do know and
 would like to change it. How do I do this? Do I go into XConfigurator and
 if so how do I do it? Second, do I install my video card driver? I am very
 new to the whole Linux thing. Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
 
 thanks,
