Make sure u have gs-esp installed on the debian laptop & select an appropriate driver for that printer. Try with driver "Raw" to use mac's driver, just in case... I've never tried to print on a mac from linux, however I've spent some time trying to print to epson stylus printers from cups :) -- Manolis Tzanidakis (mtzanidakis-at-freemail-dot-gr) Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 102798230 GnuPG Key Fingerprint: 5CA5 41D6 09F1 C4B9 C331 65EF 4B3F 6979 EB8C 88F3 Get my public key at: pgp.mit.edu
