I have replaced my hp970 with a new epson stylus photo 925 using Stylus_Photo_925-gimp-print.ppd.gz and cups. (SuSE 8.1).
I installed the printer with Yast/2 after updating the printerdb with the ppd file above. Test printing from Yast/2, Control Center or to lp/lpr does not complete.
test print appear in /var/spool/cups but does not print.
Appears that Stylus_Photo_925-gimp-print(-ijs).ppd looks for a default printer, escp2-925, and cannot find it. I did locate escp2-925.ppd.gz that was in gimp-print-cups-4.2.4-1.i386.rpm and placed the ppd file into /usr/share/cups/model/stp. The Stylus_Photo....ppd was at /usr/share/cups/model/Epson. The Stylus_Photo_925-gimp-print.ppd was obtained generated by linuxprinting.org. I am printing by using the ppd file, Stylus_Photo_895-gimp-print and all functions that I have tested seem to work acceptably although I have not tried a 2880 x 720 DPI photo yet. 2880 x 1440 DPI offered by the 925 is not supported by the 895 ppd. And I have found *no* other ppd files for the Stylus_Photo that work better with the 925. I am very interested in what experience anyone else has had configuring the Epson Stylus Photo 925. -- Patrick Shanahan http://wahoo.no-ip.org Registered Linux User #207535 icq#173753138 @ http://counter.li.org
