However, when I try to print from Star Office 3.x I get the print commands coming out on the printed page, instead of the intended test pages. Previous to this I have only been printing plain Ascii text files - no problems there. The handbbok suggested I make an interpreter script (I took the default shown on page) and include the ghostscript supported driver - for which I chose the epson. What did I do wrong here? Nothing turned up in my mail archive search. TIA Chris R. Patrick Gardella wrote: > I use the Epson Stylus Color 600 on my FreeBSD machine.
