what do you mean "driver", do you mean the command you type to print a file? when you have created the dvi file from the latex source, you should just be able to type `dvips file.dvi` and it will be sent to the printer. is your printer working normally for everything else? the dvips command is part of the `tetex-bin' package; if you installed LaTeX using aptitude, i would be VERY surprised if tetex-bin was not also installed. hope that helps, cheers, Sam -- Free High School Science Texts http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/fhsst Sam's Homepages http://fommil.homeunix.org/~samuel http://www.ma.hw.ac.uk/~samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
