I can rellay recommend epson,
just bought an stylus color 600 and it worked from the first attempt,
BUT beforehand I installed ghostscript 5.10 from the suse-site,
got the latest apsfilter, not susefilter,
and already had a newer a2ps installed.
The first two I recommend anyway, if you intend to print
postscript, like I do all the time.
