Of course, any postscript printer will work perfectly. beware that linuxprinting.org lists some non-postscript inkjets as `perfectly' supported, this is not entirely true as it may still be a absolute *NIGHTMARE* to make one of these miserable things work. one example is the Epson Color Stylus Photo 870. see my other mails about that. this printer does *NOT* work at all with debian's gs packages. recompiling your own is a non-trivial task. i got fed up and returned the damn thing and got a used Apple laserwriter off ebay (true real postscript support and tcp/ip networking to boot) unless your a masochist stay AWAY from non-postscript printers. </rant> -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
