<P>Can I just first of all say : GREAT. It seems to me that thanks to this you will be able to provide better support for our printers in Linux. And I can only be happy about that.</P>
<P>So my thanks go out to you, who I believe to have been pushing for this not to mention do development on your own to give us printing capabilities and to HP management who've decided on this.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Since it seems that HP is warming up for Linux, might it be possible that HP will also start making the PPD files etc.. for printers? Or release more documentation for it so that someone with the right knowledge will be able to use this.</P>
<P>I have a OfficeJet G55 and currently I'm using the cpdj500 filter. Which gives bad quality compared to what my printer can do.</P>
<P>Now I understand one can use the 970 but having looked at it, there are a lot of steps there to do without clear English instructions. </P>
<P>It would be nice if we would be able to just get a filter or so and put it on the system instead of having to go out, getting Ghostscript and the driver and then compiling, making changes etc...</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Thank you.<BR><BR></P></DIV>
