I am planning to buy a pesonal laser printer and I would like to know which printers are supported under FreeBSD since I would also like to install FreeBSD on my home computer. I have narrowed my choices to the following printers; HP 6L Okidata 600e or 610e Raven (Panasonic) Ls6 I am especially concerned if I can access the 'full potential' of the printer under FreeBSD (i.e. dpi and print speed). For instance, in the HP 6L the printer makes use of HP's Resolution Enhancement technology (REt) and enhanced PCL 5. But can these features work under FreeBSD? My e-mail address is yu132719@yorku.ca TIA for your help, Ron
