Re: Printer Woes and Gimp
I never thought about posting this message here and if it's considered off topic then apollogies We have a couple of HP printers here on the network as network printers, IE they are stand alone. I can't for the life of me set up printing in Linux to these printers. All the printtools that I've seen expect either a local printer, a printer via samba (windows share) or novell netware printer. It's been the achillies heel of my system since day 1. any help would be greatly appreciated and perhaps reply via personal mail (rather than the list) would be more appropriate.

Printer Woes and Gimp
I am trying to use gimp (ver 1.0.4) ) Epson Color Stylus Driver 600 and a Epson Color 640 printer to print graphics to a 8.5x11 surface (paper, photo paper and transparancies so far). The command " /usr/bin/lpr -Plp -l" is used from within gimp's printer set up. Regardless of the scaling or positioning the image always prints the same size and roughly 90% of the image prints on one sheet while the rest of the image is printed to a second sheet. Is any one familiar with this problem and any possible fixes thanks, -lloyd -- "Art and the holy are twins." -Jerome Witkin, painter *** http://www.morpheme.com ** mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
