There seems to be something about a uniprint profile for the 740. Also, Gimp-Print (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net) lists several Epson Stylus printers, but not the 760. This is intended for use with the Gimp, but they also have an Epson Stylus driver which they've written for use with Ghostscript. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gdevstp700/?cvsroot=gimp-print I've never tried these. YMMV. Rahul. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
