I have installed the libc5 package of gs (file name for archie: gs-aladdin_5.03-0.99_i386.deb) and it worked out of the box. For Stylus Color I use magicfilter with the following lines in its config file: ~/Incoming$ more /usr/sbin/stc-normal-filter #! /usr/sbin/magicfilter # # Magic filter setup file for 720 DPI Epson Stylus Color series # # This file has been automatically adapted to your system. # # PostScript 0 %! filter /usr/bin/gs @stc600p.upp -q -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sOutputFile=- - 0 \004%! filter /usr/bin/gs @stc600p.upp -q -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sOutputFile=- - # ... more lines follow ... The other lines are identical to the filter create with magicfilterconfig. The @stc600p.upp means: read options from the file stc600p.upp, where the uniprint driver is selected and some options for the driver are selected. There is also the stc600ih.upp file for 1440x720 printing. Torsten -- I haven't lost my mind -- it's backed up on tape somewhere.
