-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I need a test report from folks running Gentoo (as I do).
I was wondering if anyone had tried with any success whatever, the PIPS drivers from http://avasys.jp/hp/menu000000900/hpg000000859.htm ?? I've been trying (with no success excepting this longshot, the Epson RX680), to get a Inkjet printer that has duplex (doublesided) printing to admit they have working Linux drivers (really, Gentoo ones). I've found both the Canon PIXMA (the MP830 and MX850 printers, and the HP C7280, but the Linuxprinting database shows no support for those yet. I wouldn't have known about the Avasys driver from Linuxprinting alone, but I guess I got lucky with sufficient time wasted with Google. Avasys said they got it working with some other Linux distros, but not Gentoo. So, I'm praying I can get at least one positive report here on getting that Epson printer (or, even one of thoe others) working under Gentoo. Unfortunately, Avasys doesn't test with Gentoo (the snobs). Sure would appreciate even a rumor of a way to get a duplex (like I said, doublesided) printer up and running (cheaply, I won't pay $2,000.00, that HP model, at about $300, is as far as I'd want to go.) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIH9FLz62J6PPcoOkRAjOKAKCb8qqjV2r7mWEkqWr4zOFKbW9PpQCgmEbm PVqkYANBkcr8UPcVdQoWx48= =UIFi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
