Hi Rusty,

First, I hope, and suspect you did make sure that you
got a generic printer, not a Windblows ONLY one.

Second, I've used the original AmigaOS version of
TurboPrint for years with great results.I have not
used it with USB, but on the Amiga side, the rule of
thumb is that if the USB stack is working, the printer
should work, too.

As far as I know, there is still a strong mailing list
for the Amiga version. See if you can find a reference
to a Linux one on the IrseeSoft Website.

If you don't find anything, email me privately & I'll
check if my Amiga contacts can help find something.

Best,
Bob Kennedy
