hi,
just wondering if anyone has any information reguarding the PagePro 1350W laser printer. i have been unable to find anything in reference to it either on google or in the forums here. it's not listed in linuxprinting.org at all, and i'm fairly sure it doesn't support postscript or anything, (it's a pretty cheap printer) so i kinda doubt it'll be very easy to get working, if it would work at all in linux. i think i'll probably just try to sell it and get a better one if nobody has any info. i'm not sure if i should even try other minolta drivers for foomatic, it'd be easier to sell if it's still working :)

thanks,
jay

I worked with Manual Tobias Schiller to improve the the 12xx printer drivers for linux. I had it working by patching his initial driver with info from other drivers and had it funtionally working. I've since rebuilt my install and am having difficulties getting the same driver working again. It's a fast printer that gives me good quality. It really suprised me given the price.

hey, that's awesome! i actually had given up on it and bought a laserjet 1200, but still have the minolta sitting around collecting dust. maybe if i get bored sometime i'll pull it out and see if i can make it work. although... the lj-1200 is a pretty good printer too, so maybe i'll just try to sell it. thanks though!
