Hi there,
The ones I've installed on my windows machine are in:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=pdrv&platform=win
Printing works fine and I don't have the 15/20 seconds delay I get with the HP drivers (installed on the windows machine with the smb printer on linux + cups).
My problem is in the fact that with that postscript driver from Adobe, I can't print colors.
[You don't say which version of Windows you're using...]
A PostScript driver on Window always uses a "PPD" (PostScript Printer Description) file with it. It is normally in %WINDOWS%\system32\spool\driver\W32x86\2\ (or ...\3\)
Check which one is used for your printer. See what the line says if you grep for the "^*ColorDevice" keyword. If you find a "*ColorDevice: True", then there should be an additional "*ColorModel" line somewhere.
If you find a "*ColorDevice: False", you can't print color with it. Change the PPD (== reinstall the driver).
Also, you can toggle between Color and Black/White from within the Windows driver. If you check B/W here, your client doesn't sent color and your printer will print B/W only....
If you guys find the solution, I'd appreciate some help.
Bye,
