Re: Dj660c-filter and stepping

[Alan Tam <alantam@usa.net>]

Hi Joseph,

        Thank you for your suggestion. I've solved my printing problem from  the hints given by Bob and
Hernan.

        There is a dj550c-filter in the magicfilter package from Debian and replace the last command with '
default     text ' as instructed by the installer and that is it. It works fine now.

        Thank you.
