If you're using Redhat, use the printtool (in X) to select your
driver. The DJ200 is not listed, so use DJ500 instead - it works fine.
But you'll find that it prints incredibly slowly, and I don't know how
to change the quality settings with that driver. My solution was to
download the hpdj driver (search on freshmeat for the download
location), and install it...
But there's a catch to that, you'll also need to get and recompile the
ghostscript sources which is about 5MB!
