Thanks Ed, but...

I'm new to Linux (1 week!), and have no idea what I should do with the
patched gs file I've just downloaded (gnu-gs-6.51-hl1250-patch-0.4.gz) :-)

What has the print driver got to do with GS (I know, this is probably a daft
question to you guys, but I have no idea!).

How do I use this source code to build and install a driver/file/whatever to
make my printer print?

Do I also need a ppd file, a desc file, and a pdq file?...if yes, when the
scripts have been generated by the web page, how do I use them...save
them...what names, and where?

Is this all I need to do...just install the version of gs with the patch
(once I know how to build it!)?

I can see load of docs on the site, but don't know what applies and
therefore what to read and what to ignore...sorry to ask these questions but
without some help I'm a bit (a lot!) lost

Thx again

Nige
