Whoops.. my bad.=20 This was actually installed with patches to hpijs from this PR: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3Dports/54156 I wonder why it wasn't committed since July. You need to install the foomatic-db port.. But you can download foomatic-rip from www.linuxprinting.org and yes it is just a perl script to configure options to control printer driver options and filters. For Epson printers.. gimp-print already gives you the best results and it's already configured automatically by the port install of gimp-print if you already have cups. For hpijs though, it isn't. -- "Optimized, readable, on time; Pick any two."=20 FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT i386=20 1:18AM up 1 day, 4:45, 3 users, load averages: 0.66, 0.80, 0.67 --=-F5vldjpk7MXa2lX73K2i Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA/dckQDAqnLW/+/X8RAlHfAKC62J0/zSFespo5edljU+5fH1PnLgCgzRlX 0MHljKIS5DmfZt/CN/7QENM= =gZV5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-F5vldjpk7MXa2lX73K2i--
