Thank you, they seem to work fine on my printer too. I have added these to the package in the pkg-gnome svn repository. I'm not sure how the copyright is best handled. Maybe you can add the GPL stanza as a comment in the beginning of the files? > Please note that although these files are Postscript not EPS, I have > renamed them with the .eps extension so they will work as drop-in > replacements.

I'm guessing this is because of a change in CUPS, see http://www.cups.org/str.php?L2175 -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
