Use YaST to set up your printer (stcolor), and use WP's generic PS device. GS will take care of the rest for you.
I have my printer set up as stcolor by YaST (I had it configures as epsonc) but the correct driver you mentioned (WP's generic PS device) is not in the list. Am I missing something?
You should have your printer set up by YaST for your system in general. In WordPerfect you go to File-Print... and then I think it is Add printer. You set up a Passthrough PS printer on your appropriate port.

And that did it, I can now print WP docs (no to use winword anymore!). Thanks to the helping hands John Pennington and Gregory Thomas! One more thing - is there any difference between choosing 'stcolor' and 'epsonc' in YaST? I do have an Epson Stylus Color printer. -- Yatsen Ng yatsen.ng@brunel.nl Den Haag, The Netherlands It said "Needs Windows 95 or better".
