You just *have* to get an Epson 680 or higher. Epson Japan has produced a Linux driver for it that gives the same print quality as you get from the Windows drivers. It is fabulous!! Never before have I seen such good quality from a colour printer on Linux! There is a gui tool for setting paper & print quality etc. too. The driver works through your normal /etc/printcap so just slots in nicely. The web page for the driver is at: http://www.epkowa.co.jp/english/pro_e/pips_e.html There is a readme accessible from the download page which explains how to set it all up. I downloaded the .rpm and installed that stright onto my debian box - for some reason, alien wouldn't convert it, but if you do 'rpm -i --nodeps whatever.rpm' it will install cleanly. -- Phillip Deackes Using Progeny Debian Linux
