Linux is shit

Good for you. We all find our own level.

Bye..... Have fun....

Hugs and Kisses and all that.

Don't take it as an insult, but if you think so lowly of Linux, please refrain from posting here again.

A classic Flatfish witty remark. You are cute and lovable.

And you are the jewel that lights up the night. (8-)) Just install Appsfilter or CUPS, followed by the dependent packages (Ghoscript, ImageMagick, etc.)

Somehow I knew you and windows would be a perfect match. When are you moving to AOL?

Aw, you lucky DOG!!!

$70 PS laser printer? Wow! is it any good?

That's fine man. Stick to it as long as you can or like.

Oh kiss my butt Ayende.

If anybody thinks as lowly of the GPL'D code, it would be you.

You are not completely correct - if you look at www.linuxprinting.org you will notice that most Cheap&nasty Winprinters are supported as well.

Linux also has the advantage of not needing to hunt for the driver disk when you change to a new printer as most drivers are installed with the operating system - my father recently bought a cheap shop-clearance Canon BJC2000 printer (without drivers or manual) which I tested for him. On my Mandrake system I just used the CUPS WWW admin tool to add the printer and test it, to get it working on his Windows machine I had to download 3mb of driver from canon's website.
