I've had similar problems for most of our HP-printers as well and finally decided that it was time to give turboprint a chance. It integrates nicely into almost any printing environment (cups, lpr, lprng, ...) and offers printer drivers for every printer that I have come around so far.
only bad thing: if you want to get maximum quality (photo printing) you either have to live with a footer saying "I was printed with turboprint" or you purchase it for EUR 19.95. I found it very worth the prize. you can get it from www.turoprint.de maybe that helps a bit ... greets udo On Mit, 2002-02-06 at 05:36, Theo Brinkman wrote: > I've just upgraded to 8.1, and I'm having printing issues again. > > The only driver I could get to work under Mandrake 8.0 for my setup (HP > DeskJet 855c slung off the print server of my SMC Barricade 7004ABR) was > the HP 600 driver labled as being from HP. > > Unfortunately, I'm not sure which package that came from, as successful > printing that time was the result of a long, and tortured night of > swapping back and forth between various printing systems (lprNG, CUPS, > LPR, etc...). > > Can anybody tell me what rpm I've got to install to get the HP drivers > *from* HP? > > - Theo > > > > ---- > > Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
