Thanks for that, just checked: $ cat /etc/profile.d/linux.sh #!/bin/sh # Put the Linux directory first in the path so that we can replace lpr PATH=/usr/local/linuxprinter/bin:$PATH export PATH $ which lpr /usr/local/linuxprinter/bin/lpr $ ldd `which lpr` libgtk-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgtk-1.2.so.0 (0x40023000) libgdk-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgdk-1.2.so.0 (0x40141000) libgmodule-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgmodule-1.2.so.0 (0x40173000) libglib-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0 (0x40176000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40197000) libXi.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6 (0x4019b000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x401a3000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x401b1000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4027c000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4029f000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) chmod'ing the relevant profile.d files (linux.*) stops that. > I have not tried it but installing by hand will be a little more > complicated that what you say: you must have a working > /etc/linuxprint.cfg (ask again if you need mine) That appears to be config info for the ppmtospl2 filter. There's an executable called cfggen on the CD that seems to generate these files, but no details on how to use it, just running it produces a file but it doesn't contain the same amount of information as the actual linuxprint.cfg file generated by the setup program (see end of post for my copy).

From: Migs on 22 Feb 2006 23:20 Good to hear. I'm really looking forward to getting one, since most of my prints will be docs anyway. The toner lasts for how many pages though (if anyone's run through one already)?

The toner lasts for how many pages though (if anyone's > run through one already)? Had mine for a year and still one the same toner cartridge. Don't buy a new cartridge though, they cost more than the printer. You can get a refiller kit for about ?15 on line. The cartridge has a nice convenient bung in the side for refilling. Ian |
