Check out http://www.linuxprinting.org. Once you've identified the printer you like and the driver that supports it, you can download the rpm for the printing subsystem of choice (foomatic, cups, whatever) and see if the current version compatible with 7.3 supports that printer. > Please, don't say me I should install RH 9 at once, for I need some time > actually in order to print some papers, though my present printer > ( an HP DeskJet 550C ), is to be replaced very shortly. Somebody earlier asked about a specific printer and I suggested how to prove if RHL 9 supported it or not (and it did). Check the shrike and redhat-list archives for the steps - it was in the last week or two and I think it was about a Canon 300 or something like that. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program
