Sarge breaks some HP deskjets

2004-07-29 Thread Joe Potter
Hello all, Is there anyway that the Debian team could make it so I could use libcupsys2 in Sarge rather than libcupsys2-gnutls10 ?? The latter breaks my HP 920c in that I can no longer print text --- but graphics still works. With libcupsys2 it works just great. Can we put back the library

Well, color might not be quite to the level of Winblows, but its passable. There is a version of gs-aladdin that includes DeskJet 850 support, but I haven't bothered to build it from source yet. (DJ850 isn't included in the standard build). Webpages print fine. At 05:33 PM 2/8/99 -0800, Syrus
