I don't know what effect this may have on printing and gimp (and I don't know if Mandrake uses a BSD-like print setup.), but you may want to try apsfilter. Hope this provides some help.

Re: Printing to an older Canon
I don t know if it will help but I had the same effect when choosing the effective driver for an hp but did not select the print as ghoscript option as i write this i realise there isn t such options anymore with "cups inside" it was for mandrake 71 I had not that kind of trouble with cups maybe you should try the mandrake user forum and the muo site which have some good tutorials on cups http://www.mandrakeuser.org/hardware/hcups0.html http://www.mandrakeforum.com/article.php3?sid=20001129095531 (faq 5 so 4 more over there) imr On Monday 04 December 2000 17:38, you wrote: Dennis Kent wrote: Canon BJC 610.

Printing to an older Canon
Recently I upgraded to Mandrake 7.2 and GIMP 1.1.29. Everything is fine except that I can't print to my Canon BJC 610. There are no drivers in CUPS or Gimp-Print for any Canons older than BJC 1000. Has anybody had any experience with this? It prints a gimp-print header with some settings and then pages and pages full of s8W-! . I can clear the print queue and power the printer on and off a couple of times and they still keep coming. Anyone have any ideas? __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores.
