Bug #293890, is a request from me to provide 5.0.0-beta2 in experimental. Roger Leigh, now has released 5.0.0-beta4 into experimental. BTW, experimental can be installed in any version additionally. I have both an R300 and an RX600, I can do near everything that either printer can do. Photos are spectacular, exactly the same as Windows (IMNSHO) as I have photos printer through the same printer from both Windows and Linux with Cups and Gimpprint. Make sure you have the latest PPDs/Capabilities description files for the package. It made a difference last year, might not now. Heck, even Epson "claims" Linux is supported now, through a 3rd party using CUPS. -- greg, greg@gregfolkert.net For technology that is Strong, Better, Faster: Linux
