The printing is really slow (more than a hour >for a single text page), and comes with random lines or exotic characters. I have a DJ660C, and it works perfectly. I use the Deskjet 550C driver (cdj550) for Ghostscript, and it works great. I'm also using "magicfilter" (from sunsite), which automatically converts Postscript (and .dvi files, and most graphics formats) to the right format before printing. All you have to do is type 'lpr psfile.ps' and it prints right. Highly recommended, and easy to set up. Scott -- Scott A.
