Hi Till,

I've been looking into getting the oki4w driver up and running under CUPS
on Linux Mandrake. Unfortunately there appear to be some problems. Firstly,
when I looked at the CUPS-o-matic entries on the Linux Printing site, the
oki4w wasn't there. Secondly, the oki4w driver (man page attached) suggests
that the driver should be run SUID root and also not in pure filtering mode
under a spooling daemon such as lpd. I presume this applies to CUPS as
well.

Can you see a way around this?

Cheers,

-Karl
