I bought a Brother HL-5170DN, and it solved the problem. I copied the PPD from the CD, followed the steps outlined in the online help page thing, and boom. Output looks absolutely fantastic. This will probably solve myriad other problems I've had ever since I bought that original printer too. It's the first time I've ever seen a CUPS test page with a complete box all the way around the outside edges. "Works perfectly" my ass, although back in 2001 I was satisfied with "works 90%." So, my official recommendation to anyone with Rosegarden printing problems is to suck it up, take a crowbar to your wallet, and buy a real PostScript printer if everything else fails. -- Michael McIntyre ---- Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/ http://rosegarden.sourceforge.net/tutorial/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ Rosegarden-devel mailing list [email protected] - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-devel
