I've got the Canon MultiPASS fax/scanner/printer/copier/etc. "device" over
here... picked it up yesterday for a really good price.  It apparently
supports only Win95/98 but I'm assuming that's the extra features like
FAXing from the PC, etc.  I just need it to print under Linux (none of the
extra features).  Has anyone had experience with these 6-in-1 deals
before?  The manual doesn't say anything about print compatability with
other OS's, so I'm not sure...  I figure I'd test it out, I'm *assuming*
that it's similar to a Canon Bubble Jet as far as the printing goes.

My question is, is it safe to change the printer type and just test a
bunch of them out to see how it works?  It wouldn't damage my printer at
all, would it?  I'm assuming the worst that can happen is it either won't
print or it'll look all crappy-like, but I want to make sure.

Also, is there a way to change the printer type?  The Printer Setup in
DrakConf doesn't do it...  would I use something like printtool?
