As an update to my previous post, I believe that the PCL printer is
going to be replaced by a Postscript printer. (HP1300)
The thin clients are Fedora Core 1 machines so I'm pretty flexible
there. (Thanks for the pointer to STR 660, btw.)
I don't mean to be pushy, but I am still quite interested in your
thoughts on compressing the stream for postscript printers, when you
have a moment.
Thanks,
