Hello,because I can not find out how to get my new printer Epson Stylus D88 working under Debian 3.1. sarge with *foomatic*, I am trying to do it with magicfilter, but first calling GhostScript by hand.
I believe that the Stylus D88 is a GDI printer, however, http://www.linuxprinting.org writes that the Stylus D88 works with the gutenprint driver.
After installing libgutenprint2 and ijsgutenprint, in /usr/share/gutenprint/5.0.0-rc3/xml/printers.xml, I found:
<printer name="Epson Stylus D88" driver="escp2-d88" manufacturer="Epson" model="69" parameters="standard_params" />
I called gs - the input file is 14.ps - a tarotcard that I have designed - and the result is:
david@debian:~$ gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=ijs -sIjsServer=/usr/bin/ijsgutenprint -sDeviceManufacturer=EPSON -sDeviceModel=escp2-d88 -sOutputFile=14.prn -c quit 14.ps
