Magicfilter (epson9-filter) knows about the lx-300 because ghostscript knows about epson 9 pin dot matrix printers (-sDEVICE=epson). Is printtool so different, doesn't it use gs, why wouldn't printtool take take advantage of gs's built in ability to produce output for the epson. I know nothing about printtool, but it is surprising to me that printtool cannot be set up for the lx-300. Is this an oversight? Maybe Epson do a PPD description file that you can use with the recent ppd based lpr-ppd stuff? Just a thought... --jcm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Select a printer that is nearly the same as yours. Perhaps Epson support page shows compatible printers. Else it is just trail and error.
