Is anybody here using either an Okidata Postscript Printer or any other PS
Printer under OSX?


I've run out of ink on my MFC multifunction printer and until I can buy some
more, I need to utilize another printer. I've got a known working Okidata
OL 410 e postscript that worked under oS9, but it just won't show up in the
Printer List under X. I've tried the IP Printing option, I'd tried turning
on Appletalk but my serial modem doesn't like that. I've also tried
choosing the printer in the Classic Chooser. I even followed the method
shown on the Apple site but the ppd just won't show up.


Anybody come across a fix to allow an OKI or any PS printer to work in OSX?

Thanks all,

Dave
Gimp-print which works with the 'Cups" printing built in to Jaguar has a listing for your printer. I have been using Gimp print with my Epson Stylus Color 850 serial printer every since Jaguar came out. Notes say the Okidata OL 410e works with the "PCL-4 drivers" which are native to the HP Laser Jet 4 series.
Here's the page for Gimp print software. Note that Gimp print comes with Panther! So Apple must like it. Hope this works for you. Will S
