Scroll down the list and you'll see some entries for c44 and how they got it working.
Hi Mike,
I have the printer working!! After some searching on Google, via the Cups site, I got to the gimp-print site. And there I read that, with setting up USB printers, Cups needs to be restarted. Best way to go through with this is, as Derek said, reboot the machine. But -> Make sure the printer is on.
So I did that. Then I reran the Turboprint setup program, and this time I found the entry for /dev/usb/lp0 in a list. I selected it. Clicked ok. No problem.
Fired up OO's spadmin and added the printer. Printed a very simple text document. Yes, it works!
Then I loaded Gimp, selected the Epson Stylus C42UX driver (also something I saw at gimpprint) and printed a picture I took at Grand Canyon at 720DPI, not even 720 DPI High Resolution. And damn, that print comes out fine!!
I am a happy camper now. Turboprint and the info on the Gimpprint site made my day!
Next time someone asks "With Linux, can you-" I'll cut them short and say "yes".
Thanks for the help, everyone!
Paul
