SuSE PRO 7.3 installed and working on my DELL GX110 mini-tower computer. I have an EPSON STYLUS COLOR C60 connected through a USB cable. SuSE detects the printer correctly as well as the USB cable. I tried to configure the printer using either "lp" or"cups". My problem is that no matter the dpi configuration or the driver I choose the test image printed out is always only black/white. Actually when I configured the printer as "lp" the choice of some high-resolution drivers caused SuSe configuration interface to lose control of the printer that kept printing pages and pages of wierd characters and symbols. Not even turning it off and on again could reset it. I finally could kill the printing process by unplugging the USB cable and shutting down the computer.
As my printer supports colors and can print colors when driven by Windows 2000 (I tested that) my question for you is HOW CAN I GET A COLOR PRINTOUT withe SuSE ???
I'm having an almost similar problem here... it's an Epson Stylus Color 640 and I got a colored testpage printed after I chose one of the correct high-resolution drivers... But since then, I haven't got a single drop of color out of that thing... I chose the correct printer (the one with the color driver) and even set that up as the standard device, it still only prints b/w (but it shows the higher resolution which that driver also provides)...
