Hi, John.

I have been ill the last week, and work has piled up. I will look into getting around this problem, but it may be a couple of days before I can get to it.



Jason, Mark,
A follow up and final on this. I finally got my printer to work properly. I did the following to get there.
1) Downloaded omni-0.7.2. Configured, compiled, installed AOK. libomni.so showed up in /opt/omni/lib. Mark, I had a small proplem here. I deleted all the printers in devices.mak except Panasonic, and the compile failed with some error related to Hewlett Packard. I add HP back to devices.mak and compile went OK.
2) Downloaded espgs-7.05.5 from the CVS, did a makesrcdist, replaced my version in /var/spool/sorcery. An install(cast -r -c) of espgs then configured, compiled, and installed OK.
3) Reviewed all my cupsomatic and PPD stuff
4) Printed a simple text file OK
5) Tried the test print in CUPS, and it failed looking for a particular font.
6) Investigation showed the standard ghostscript fonts had disappeard. Probably because espgs install had done away with them.
7) Installed(cast -r -c) ghostscript-fonts-std, and the CUPS test , print a test page, worked.

Jason, it appears the espgs spell needs to be upgraded for the omniprint driver. You copy?
JohnC
