It was on my to-do list for ages, too. I struggled to find decent documentation for configuring the /etc/printcap file and such.. In the end, though, it turned out to be a no-brainer to do. #magicfilterconfig Follow the prompts. Easy. There's a goodly range of printers covered, including the Stylus Color IIs (the colour driver, I'd imagine) and the Stylus 800 (the B&W one, which I configured my Color IIs to use). Best of luck. --: _ ___ _ _ _ _oo__ |_|_ |__ _ | | _ |_|_' _ pc at it dot net dot a u | //`'\_ | (/_|(/_| .|. |_(_|| | || | it.net.au/~pc | / PO Box 869, Hillarys WA 6923, AUSTRALIA |
