[hpoj-announce] HP Linux Inkjet Driver 1.2 Release (fwd)

[David P. <pa...@rc...>]

Hi.  I'm forwarding the announcement of the latest hpijs-1.2 release.
The following changes are of particular interest to the hpoj project:

- New device classes for DeskJet 540, 850, 890, and PCL-only monochrome
  LaserJets, which correspond to the OfficeJet LX/3xx, 1150, 1170/1175,
  and LaserJet 1100/3200, respectively.

- When used with the newer "ijs" interface (as opposed to the older
  "hpijs" interface), you may now specify the actual model string for
  your OfficeJet instead of mapping it to the compatible DeskJet model.

I have updated http://hpoj.sourceforge.net/suplist.shtml accordingly.

David
