It's own .ppd file (Postcript Printer Definition file), which is included on the CD that comes with the printer or can be downloaded from the Internet, works very well with the printer and CUPS (Common Unix Printing System), without the need for filtering through Ghostscript. I like the printer very much, and use it to print scores I have produced using LilyPond. It has excellent black-and-white output. -Steve D New Mexico US -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. -Henry L.
