Epson Stylus Color 600

Marzola can you provide more information on how you did this? I upgraded my ghostscript too and have been unable to get my 800 to work.  

  Would you provide printcap and filter scripts?

thanks.

Additional information by request from [talwyn]:

(1) Edit the file /usr/lib/rhs/rhs-printfilters/ps-to-printer.fpi
    Look for "# we're using ghostscript", change the eval to match the what is below:

   eval "$mpage_cmd | gs -q $GSDEVICE \
      -sPAPERSIZE=$PAPERSIZE \
      -sOutputFile=- \
      -"

(2) Using the RH printtool, create three print queues

      (1) Names:            epson_color_lq|co_lq|lp
          Spool Directory:      /var/spool/lpd/epson_color_lq
          File Limit:            0
          Printer Device:      /dev/lp0
          Input Filter:      Cannon BJ-100/200/210/240

      (2) Names:            epson_color_mq|co_mq
          Spool Directory:      /var/spool/lpd/epson_color_mq
          File Limit:            0
          Printer Device:      /dev/lp0
          Input Filter:      Cannon BJ-100/200/210/240

      (3) Names:            epson_color_hq|co_hq
          Spool Directory:      /var/spool/lpd/epson_color_hq
          File Limit:            0
          Printer Device:      /dev/lp0
          Input Filter:      Cannon BJ-100/200/210/240


(3) In each of these directories, edit the postscript.cfg file:

      /var/spool/lpd/epson_color_lq:
      GSDEVICE=bj200            -->      GSDEVICE=\@stc800pl.upp
      RESOLUTION=180x180      -->      RESOLUTION=360x360
      COLOR=                  -->      COLOR=
      PAPERSIZE=letter      -->      PAPERSIZE=letter
      EXTRA_GS_OPTIONS=""      -->      EXTRA_GS_OPTIONS=""
      REVERSE_ORDER=            -->      REVERSE_ORDER=YES
      PS_SEND_EOF=NO            -->      PS_SEND_EOF=YES

      /var/spool/lpd/epson_color_mq:
      GSDEVICE=bj200            -->      GSDEVICE=\@stc800p.upp
      RESOLUTION=180x180      -->      RESOLUTION=720x720
      COLOR=                  -->      COLOR=
      PAPERSIZE=letter      -->      PAPERSIZE=letter
      EXTRA_GS_OPTIONS=""      -->      EXTRA_GS_OPTIONS=""
      REVERSE_ORDER=            -->      REVERSE_ORDER=YES
      PS_SEND_EOF=NO            -->      PS_SEND_EOF=YES

      /var/spool/lpd/epson_color_hq:
      GSDEVICE=bj200            -->      GSDEVICE=\@stc800ih.upp
      RESOLUTION=180x180      -->      RESOLUTION=1440x720
      COLOR=                  -->      COLOR=
      PAPERSIZE=letter      -->      PAPERSIZE=letter
      EXTRA_GS_OPTIONS=""      -->      EXTRA_GS_OPTIONS=""
      REVERSE_ORDER=            -->      REVERSE_ORDER=YES
      PS_SEND_EOF=NO            -->      PS_SEND_EOF=YES

(4) Rename your '/etc/printcap' to '/etc/printcap-'.  Create a new '/etc/printcap' with the following contents:

      epson_co_lq|color_lq|lp:\
              :sd=/var/spool/lpd/epson_co_lq:\
              :mx#0:\
              :sh:\
              :lp=/dev/lp0:\
              :if=/var/spool/lpd/epson_co_lq/filter:
      epson_co_mq|color_mq:\
              :sd=/var/spool/lpd/epson_co_mq:\
              :mx#0:\
              :sh:\
              :lp=/dev/lp0:\
              :if=/var/spool/lpd/epson_co_mq/filter:
      epson_co_hq|color_hq:\
              :sd=/var/spool/lpd/epson_co_hq:\
              :mx#0:\
              :sh:\
              :lp=/dev/lp0:\
              :if=/var/spool/lpd/epson_co_hq/filter:

(5) Restart LPD.  Execute the following as root:

      /etc/rc.d/init.d/lpd stop
      /etc/rc.d/init.d/lpd start

(6) Test the printer with (execute from a non-root account):

      lpr -Plp /usr/lib/rhs/rhs-printfilters/testpage.ps


You have now created three queues one for low quality (360x360), one for medium quality (720x720), and one for high quality (1440x720).  If you don't specify a printer, the default will be the low quality printer queue.  Use the following commands to send jobs to the appropriate queue:

      low quality> lpr -Pco_lq
      med quality> lpr -Pco_mq
      high quality> lpr -Pco_hq
