Just tried it... Didn't work (hpijs) : doesn't print at all, the printer |
| 20 |
goes into error mode... (I did emerge hpijs). |

Right now, I stick with ljet4. (Didn't try gimp-print, but do remember from |
| 23 |
previous linux installations the printing was much sharper with ljet4 driver |
| 24 |
than with gimp-print. I'll give it a try later.) |
