> Why is printing from a Unix type box so painful!?!?!

I think I'm a very lucky guy, because I have no problems with Linux
printing before CUPS. And I had several problems with Windows
instalation of printer drivers. I recently installed
a Okidata in 2 minutes in Linux and 15 minutes in Windows. And in
Windows I need to install a diferent port, with a reboot (of course).
It was a painfull process.

I'm happy you've resolved your problem... by the way: driver
instalation isn't a simple process, in any OS. A good approach is look
the support of the equipment after buying it. About printers,
www.linuxprinting.org is a good place to search for information about
printer suport in Linux.
