Hello All,

I look at DB, and found some Sharp drivers, and that they are growing the
support.
But, I could not found support for Sharp 1665CS, this is a multifuncional
Copier/Printer/Scanner.
Who bought the printer at the time (I was in vacancy), did not check for Linux
Suppport or even if printer is Postscript compatible.

I saw also that you have some contacts with Sharp people,
and I would like to get some helps from then, to add support for Printing,
and also for SANE (Sccaning).

Questions; Could I use one of Sharp drivers or other for Sharp AL 1665CS? 
if yes, What the best one, and whats conditions?.
if not, I would like to know where I can get the printer specs to start the
work of supporting by my self if Sharp people dont want make. 

Off course, these printer will be in blacklist of my Institution (12000
employers) until appear Linux Support.


Thanks

Job
