Such printers are broken and will not work with FreeBSD, even though they work in Windows. I found the evidence at <URL: http://www.hp.com/cgi-bin/cposupport/get_doc.pl?SNI=dj710c&LC=printers&Tfile=bpd05492 >, which says that the 710C is a host-based or PPA printer. It can't be used in DOS or Windows NT 4.0, either. Other printers in this series are the 710C, 720C, 820C and 1000C. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
