The latest version of gutenprint is supposedly able to support this
printer. Any idea where I find that? If there is one issue with Linux
it's that by the time printer and scanner hardware is supported it's
no longer in production. I can't count how many scanners I have
bought (new) which just didn't work, and by the time they worked the
new model or new firmware was out and I couldn't buy the one that
works.
Anyway, I would like to use this setup because it's quite neat but
totally unsupported.
Alternatively, if I could use the USB printer and scanner directly
from Windows under kvm without causing the working system printers to
die, I would do that. Last time I tried the printer worked but the
rest of the system printers hung after I did it. :-(
Do you mean that the scan and print drivers at:

are not suitable for you?
The rpm provided for my os and revision is 1.0.3-1 and has a boatload of
dependencies on library versions from FC6. While their documentation
suggest ignoring that, I don't think that getting rid of the error
messages will make it work better.
I appreciate the idea, but I think I'll pass on finding out what would
happen with calls to missing libraries after forcing an install.
