- Driver for the Pentax PocketJet series written by Rildo Pragana
- (author of the "ml85p" driver for Samsung laser
- winprinters) in cooperation with Pentax.<p>
-
- Rildo's announcement for this driver:<p>
-
- <i>Pentax Technologies manufacture a nice family of printers,
- PocketJet II and PocketJet 200. They signed a contract with me for
- developing a Linux driver for their printers, to be released under
- GPL. So they are good guys, don't you think so? I do. I'm still
- working on it, but here is the first public release of the driver,
- with graphical install and configuration tools. If you have a
- laptop or notebook computer, those printers are a must to
- have. They operate on thermal paper, so no ink cartdriges to
- change. And its size and weight are very convenient. I know
- because I use mine :^)</i><p>
-
- The driver is a wrapper around GhostScript, so you only call the
- driver executable with some simple options to print from the
- command line. This makes it also very convenient to use the driver
- without spooler, which is important on PDAs with limited memory
- space.
