Gould" for the link to linuxprint. I can now print very well with gimp but still haven't been able to get it working with lpd. I can configure it in cups but it does nothing. Apsfilter doesn't know it exists even though I just recompiled the latest ghostscript with the 4.1.7 version of gimp-print. Thanks to you I'm getting closer :) ed ----- Mensaje original ----- De: Malcolm Kay Fecha: Viernes, Agosto 20, 2004 0:21 am Asunto: Re: apsfilter and Epson Stylus C63 on Current > On Friday 20 August 2004 01:57, edwinculp wrote: > > I've been trying on and off to get an epson stylus c63 to print > on current. > > I've always used apsprint which has always worked perfectly.
