Apparently the 300 is not compatible to the 600. When I use the stcolor
driver with 720x720 dpi I just get white paper, but lots of that. In
fact the printing doesn't finish before I switch of the printer. When
using 360x360 I get correct output but always using color ink to print
black (hmm, even a colored image is printed that way). After some tips
(600 related) I tried using stcolor.ps but that gives me the white pages
again.
Finally I gave up last night and tried installing the Windows NT driver
just to see some nice output, but it didn't install either. After some
looking around in the docu I found that they do not have one for NT. The
NT driver only works with the 400 and 600 series. Since I have NT on my
machine for work reasons, I could try that. But I refuse to install that
bastard 95 just to print!
