Hi all,
This is probably a fairly simple question, but i cant figure it out from
the cups manual.
I have an epson stylus colour 800 inkjet printer.
It wors fine with linux, except i have a small problem with the paralell
port on my computer. It doesn;t seem to work at all. Neither under linux
or windows. Which dashed my first plans to hook my printer back up to my
computer.
Then I dug out an old intel netexpress printserver in a box i had lying
around and set it up with lpd and samba facilites on it.
Now I set cups up to point to this lpd printer, and plain text prints
absolutely swimmingly.
However when I try to print postscript to the printer, it prints post
script all right, four pages of text post script commands, rather than a
nice rendered image.
Now what I want to know, is there any way to rasterise this image before i
send it over the netowrk to the printer ? Or convert it into something
useful for the printer, without having a whole second computer, seeing as
this printserver is only being used becasue of an apparently faulty
parralell port ?
Any ideas ??
Jason
