Use the "dumb" line printer driver for the 6400 (or define it as a passthrough LPR printer and feed it to RSCS, which does know what to do with it). For the Oki printers, use the Oki drivers. The Jetdirect driver is the transport for getting the data to the printer; CUPS still needs to know what kind of printer is actually attached at the other end of the link to produce the right escape sequences. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
