some give more options? I didn't know what to pick so for the 932C I selected the one labeled foomatic + gimp (I think). By the way, what the heck is foomatic?
See http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html for full details. Foomatic was introduced into SuSE 8.2. It is used to generate the PPD's (driver files) used by the different printers. I notice that you are currently using SuSE 8.0, there have been a lot of changes in CUPS and the drivers since then. If you are wanting photo quality output from your printer it may be a good idea to upgrade to SuSE 9.0 instead of trying to get the latest drivers working with your version. As I said ealier you may have to experiment with the different drivers to find one suitable for a particular task. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------
