Install the package apsfilter and execute the program
/usr/lib/apsfilter/SETUPor configure apsfilter with YaST. Answer "
st800
"
in case of the Epson Stylus 800 or "stcolor
"
in case of the Epson Stylus Color or newer models (400, 600), when
being asked for the printer type.
It is necessary to adjust the default resolution since these printers
don't support 300x300 dpi . During the printer configuration with YaST
specify the desired resolution (180x180
, 360x360
or 720x720
). You can also attach a line similar to the following to
the file /etc/apsfilterrc
:
GS_RESOL=360x360
If you would like to use more features of these printers, you can find further
detailed information in the section "Epson" of the file
/usr/share/ghostscript/<ghostscript-Version>/doc/devices.txt
.
For most Epson Stylus printers (and for other printers, that understand the
Esc/P2 printer language) it is recommended to install the newest version (5.x)
of Ghostscript and to use the "uniprint
" drivers in conjunction with
a suitable stc*
parameter file (e.g. stc600ih.upp
or stc800ih.upp
);
Further information can be found in the above mentioned file devices.txt
of Ghostscript 5.x .
