But it's a bit of a mixed bag (a lot of their current printers are not IPP-Everywhere), and if nobody else has self-certified any printers, it's harder to say. I guess I'm a bit too familiar with Epson inkjets, which aren't (Epson offers some software to provide IPP functionality, but that isn't IPP-Everywhere). -- Robert Krawitz <rl...@al...> *** MIT Engineers A Proud Tradition http://mitathletics.com *** Member of the League for Programming Freedom -- http://ProgFree.org Project lead for Gutenprint -- http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net "Linux doesn't dictate how I work, I dictate how Linux works." --Eric Crampton |
