Is anyone successfully using an Epson stylus photo 890 printer with SuSE 7.2? linuxprinting.org gives it good marks, and describes it as working 'perfectly' but it doesn't appear in the SuSE supported hardware list, although v. similar ones from slightly earlier in Epson's range do.
The Suse hardware list is very out of date, although I noticed they have re-vamped it's interface, I don;t know if it means they have brought it more up to date. If linuxprinting.org gave it the thumbs up then you are probably ok, the printer drivers etc are not produced by Suse, so in this case Linux is Linux... As a general point on all hardware, a model being *similar* in name number or rank of one that does work does not mean it will work as well ! -- Regards Cliff
