I suppose they make it possible to upgrade everything to unstable, but it would have been nice to have the option to get new stuff incorporated into a `bo' release. > I have the new Stylus Color 600.

I got the Stylus Color 800 to work with gs-aladdin_4.03-7.deb I picked some Epson printer from the magicfilterconfig list of printers, and edited its /usr/sbin/epson9c-filter file for PostScript: # PostScript 0 %! filter /usr/bin/gs -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -r720x720 -sDEVICE=stcolor -sOutputFile=- stcolor.ps - 0 \004%! filter /usr/bin/gs -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -r720x720 -sDEVICE=stcolor -sOutputFile=- stcolor.ps - Works okay. -- Peter Galbraith, research scientist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Maurice-Lamontagne Institute, Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada P.O.
