Gurus,

I have the following configuration:

Server - Gateway 2000 running RH 7.3.  Printer is attached locally.  I
use lpd and have selected the hpijs driver.

Client - Laptop (Dell Inspiron 2650) running RH 8.0. Printing to the
printer on the server.  I use lpd and have selected the hpijs driver.

With the above configuration I can print fine both from the server and
from the laptop.

I had a scanned photo that I wanted to print from the laptop, and when
printing with the above config, the quality was poor.  So, I changed the
print driver on the laptop to gimp-print, which gives more options for
controlling quality.  I found that if I choose the default settings for
this driver, printing was ok, but resolution was poor.  If I increased
the resolution via the driver settings on the laptop, printing would
start and then fail.

SO... MY QUESTION... what is the interaction between the print driver on
the server and the print driver on the laptop?   Does it matter what I
have set on the server?  If I want to change to a different driver on
the laptop, do I need to do so on the server as well?  

Thanks for your help!  
Bill Johnson
