There will be an update with more than 170 new colour printer models
soon, but I am still waiting for the full release of the next Linux
version (5.2.8). So far, there has only been a pre-release. There will
not be many changes for the full version, but having waited that long,
I would rather wait for the full version to base the next RISC OS
release on. To give you an idea, these are the new printers in 5.2.8
(compared to 5.2.5 on which the current RISC OS version is based). (As
usual, EXPERIMENTAL means that the driver is not fully colour tuned
and might change in a later release, but it will work)
