We've had a lot of trouble with Kyocera printers too. You may find that it needs a firmware upgrade to get a newer version of Postscript or KPDL, but even that's not guaranteed to fix your problems. > printer prints fine through windows. We have an FS-1600 and an FS-3500 that print fine from some versions of Windows, sometimes. Sometimes they just print the raw Postscript or KPDL. Sometimes changing drivers makes them print OK, but then the driver will need to be changed again to print something else. We've tried every driver we can get our hands on, and *none* work all the time. I can't print anything to them from StarOffice on Linux, unless I print to a file, then convert the result to pdf with ps2pdf, then use acroread to print. I can print OK from Netscape, or print plain text with lpr. I've given up trying to get them to work properly. I don't print much anyway, so although it takes a bit of work on the rare occasions I do need to print, overall it's less time and hassle than fscking around with them to try to get them to work all the time.
