Re: troubles with PSC 1300 series

bruce, david,

I initially had difficulty due to some conflict with printer.o (with my
PSC 1350).  After I got the latest bits and built it myself, this
conflict is resolved.  Prior to doing that, I had to:
ptal-init stop
stop cups (/etc/init.d/cupsys stop)
rmmod printer
restart cups
restart ptal-init

Then I could print.  Try the latest bits though first if you haven't
(and I'd suggest build it yourself instead of using pre-packaged
bits--that's more likely to reflect your current configuration.)

YMMV,
