Postscript cartridges come in a variety of options like 17 fonts, 35 fonts, PostScript Level 2 and so on. : : b) Ghostscript, I have tried to get the lbp8 : conversion working, it doesnt look like I got it. : I compiled in the lbp8 driver and just got a bunch : of junk on my printer.., Is there a way to get : the lbp8 driver working with a lbp4 printer? How is : the output? Am I better off buying a new printer? : Have you tried GoScript Version 4.0. It is really good. First you have to print the postscript document to a file. Then run GoScript to convert this file to the language that your printer will understand and print it. Simple. : c) Are there any other software or hardware options? I think that is all that I could think of.
