I keep on trying to get it to work on FreeBSD efvery year or so, then I need to go over to one of my other systems. Last one I tried was an Epson Stylus C84, but I've also tried HP officejets, and I just can't get locally attached printers to work with cups. I can get them to work with things like apsfilter very well, but either someone is going to have to fix the Cups port (it builds, but nothing locally runs) or stop recommending it. Or, does anyone else have it working on FreeBSD? Sure would like to hear about it, but I've been trying for a long time now, with no success. > Thank you very much for your answer. > All the best, Gligor Lucian. > > > > --------------------------------- > Looking for last minute shopping deals?
