Re: Printer not printing



Keith, Brian

I have Epson 740 up and running with 360x360, 720x720, and 1440x720
resolutions.  I use "enscript" and "ghostscript" to print.  I
have a all the necessary "printtab", "print filters", and a simple
install script.

Send me a email if you want this information.
