   Hi.  I just subscribed to the list about 5 minutes ago, I hope this
   isn't a question you've already seen 400 times.

   I just bought an Epson C64.  According to linuxprinting.org,
   gimp-print supports it, and I've found a couple of newsgroup
   postings where people have said that they have it working.  But
   http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/p_Supported_Printers.php3
   specifically skips the C64, although it has others in that series.

   I've switched my sources.list (I'm using Xandros 2.0, based on
   Debian) to use "unstable" instead of "testing" (to get newer
   versions), and I've upgraded CUPS and gimp-print.  I've also
   restarted CUPS and rebooted the machine.  When I try to add the
   printer, either using the KDE wizard or the browser
   (localhost:631), I still do not see any driver for the C64.

   Does anyone know if the C64 is truly supported?  If so, please
   point me to the documentation to implement it.  I have really tried
   all the sites I know and Googled (both web and groups).  If it is
   not, is there any word on when it will be?

It is supported in the latest releases of Gimp-Print (4.2.6-rc2 and
4.3.25).  I assume you're trying to compile a recent release of 4.2,
although you didn't say.  There's a bug in the build process by which
the PPD file generator isn't picking up the new version of the library
that's being built.

The easiest workaround is to remove /usr/lib/libgimpprint.so* prior to
building the Gimp-Print package.  There will be a better workaround in
4.2.6.


haaaa volevo ben dir che saro' pur en zucon (con la Z dura), ma managgia ho instala' 600 volte el CUPS (anca dal CVS) e 300 volte el Gimp-Print e no neva gnient! adeso ho capi.


(Per chi non avesse capito suggerisco di non far tradurre: non si perderebbe granche'.... :-) )

Grazie Emanuele.
