Thanks tortise So far so super good. the gimp-print5 has allowed my Stylus 600 to run with the big dogs. With the usb parallel cable and gimp-print was just plug and play all my Tiger machines can now use this 11 year old classic printer, and to think it was on the way to the trash heap. The downloaded drivers from Epson made it work again on serial OS 8.6 also. I'm going to see if I can make it work on all my PPCs 7.5 8.6 9.2.2 10.4.11 10.5.8 Thanks for the valuable help.
