[Jim Intriglia]

Shawn,

As Lynn mentioned, the linuxprinting.org page has specific info on 
configuring the Epson 777 for Linux. I have a new Epson Color 900G, which I 
was able to get running for low res printing using RH V6.2 printtool (The 
900G was not listed specifically; I don't know if RH 7.0 printtool will list 
it either).

In any event, the linuxprining page for my Epson 900G mentions excellent 
printing test results (hi-res and otherwise) via a print driver package 
called STP. The EP777 page mentions "so-far-so good" test results, as this 
printer is (new) lightly tested so far.

A while back, I gave the STP print driver web site a read-through. It was 
not really clear to me after reading the documentation how the heck to 
install the driver, but I need to get my printer running hi-res this 
weekend, so I am going to give it another shot.

Hope this info helps.

-JimI.

I have little experience with Red Hat myself.  I assume
you've used Red Hat's printool?  I'm not sure what type
of print filters (the Unix equivalent of print drivers)
Red Hat uses, but most rely on ghostscript, so make sure
you've installed that package.

I'd recommend reposting this to the CLUE-tech list.
Also check out <http://www.linuxprinting.org/>, the
Linux Printing HOW-TO, etc.  If you do a search on
Linux printing using Google or some other search
engine, I'm sure you'll find other useful sites.

Deja.com is always a good resource.  Searching the
usenet comp.os.linux.* newsgroups may prove useful.
Specifically the setup, hardware and admin groups.

You might want consider installing a different print
system such as CUPS or lprng as an alternative to
the default bsd lpr system that comes with most Linux
distributions.  If your goal is to prepare yourself
for Linux certification though, I'd try to work
through your configuration problem using the default
software.

Good luck,

Lynn Danielson

Well, now that you know all about it, what is it?  What does it do? 
Does it do it well?  Do I need to install it?
