/WARNING, RANT MODE ON Could someone please, please, please tell my why it seems every distro of linux is such a pain in the a%^ when it comes to printing.
I have played with Redhat, Mandrake 7.1,7.2,8.1 & 8.2, Caldera, and ELX, and in EVERY CASE its an uphill battle to get a DIRECTLY attached printer to work.It doesn't seem to matter whether it is an old dotmatrix, an inkjet, or a laser; I've ALWAYS encountered problems. /RANT OFF Current problem: Using 8.2 beta 3 My current source of grief is an IBM 4029 laserprinter. I have tried all flavours of drivers, and even some HP and Lexmark drivers, and all I get is garbage across the top of the page, and the printer has to be reset. The printer works fine under all version of windows. Ken
