Hello,
I've been looking how to get working this printer in my gentoo-b0x, searched
in gentoo wiki, but those ebuilds and links are not updated, they are a
little bit old and none of that worked for me.
I was thinking if there was any chance if anyone of you have this printer
installed to tell me
Devs can do what ever they think are right. Don't argue with them unless
you pay them. Want gtk2 support? Put your ebuild in your personal overlay.
