hi Tim, thanks for your tip - but how can I use this, if I wanna setup a remote printer ? that's what I wanna do here : have 2 mdk-boxes and 1 rh8-box and a debian-box. the printer is connected on rh8 and is running well with LPRng on an EPSON Stylus Photo 700 - now I want to do a setup on the mdk-boxes, so I can (here especially my girlfriend) do a printjob as easy as with a local connected printer like with openoffice or lyx or gnumeric and much more. the printer should then be the "standard-printer on that system" except that it is connected to the remote host (here my host mozart - a rh8-box with LPRng) but the mdk-boxes all have as standard the CUPS-printing-system. First I was trying to connect the printer on a mdk-box - driven with CUPS, so far so good, but the output of the most colors are really very poor. doing the same printjob with LPRng on rh8 the colors are exactly that what it should be - black is black and blue is blue (and much more) with CUPS I have a lightgrey "black", deepblue, and too intensive green but a very poor red or purple. Now - how can I use this entry anywhere "lpd://...'-style URI. ...." thanks again for my stupid question or bloody question or however it may be appear. bye hans Am Dienstag, 5.
