It works well to configure using magicfilter, as a laserjet 4.
And for color, you can configure another printer as a Deskjet 550c, though
it's not convincing---it does work though. There exists a driver for

Hello Robb,
I'm using a BJ200 at home and I had the same problem at first. To
solve it, I had to modify a DIP-switch setting on the printer itself.
Unfortunately, I can't remember the DIP number or name by heart, and
my doc's at home. So, if you don't find out

You've already figured out how to do it - multiple queues. Each uses

Thanks to everyone's copious outpouring of hints and advice, I easily fixed
both my .profile and my printing problems.
1. I'm using bash and sure enough both the .bash_profile and .bashrc files

Just a note .. if you have a ~/.bash_profile file than bash will ignore your
.profile file.
Don't forget everyone here is making an assumption you are using the bash
shell .. if you are using a csh derivative than the .profile will be
ignored and those same commands will not work.

Hi Chris -
Is there an existing .bash_profile in that directory? I believe Debian
by default gives you one. If so, .profile will not be read:
Login shells:
On login (subject to the -noprofile option):
if /etc/profile exists, source it.
Chris,
I had the same problem with my profile. My work around
was editing (creating?) the .bash_profile file. At least I think that's
it, I'm at school now. It's just like .profile , but renamed to confuse
us ! Good luck.
Mike.
