I'll back up the case against Lexmark. Many of their larger laser models attempt to do both PCL and PS, as well as some other languages. Unfortunately, they don't seem to have licensed the full PCL or PS code, and their emulation isn't the best. Many pages (especially pages with complex font varieties) will fail to render properly. Just a heads-up, from my experience with Lexmark printers ... of course, I'd never use much other than a HP if I could help it. (Some of the larger Canon models seem ok too) Die, Xerox, Die. m To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
