didn't it work with the included GimpPrint when you set it up as a RX600?
I haven't had time to try GimpPrint yet. I'll see if Epson's driver works first - I think it almost does. Then I can compare them :)
BTW. I should just be able to set up another queue for GimpPrint with YaST, shouldn't I? That won't break an existing (hopefully) working driver.
Exactly. Setting up as many queues as you like or removing them does not change anything regarding how the software is installed. If you like to use different drivers for the same printer, you must set up several queues for the same printer. The usual examples are: - Use an older but small and fast working monochrome-only driver for fast black-and-white printouts and a modern driver-monster for best quality printouts. - Use an additional PCL driver for a PostScript+PCL printer because producing PCL on the host (with GHz CPU and GB memory) and then print the PCL raster-data results the printout much faster than let the printer itrself interpret complicated PostScript files. See for example: http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2003/06/jsmeix_print-cups-filters.html "Optional PCL Printing on PostScript+PCL Printers" Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5 Mail: jsmeix@suse.de 90409 Nuernberg, Germany WWW: http://www.suse.de/
