It's the way to do it - you are right.
After creating and copying the driver into the directory 'W32X86', the Windows Wizard works and I
can install the Windows 2000 driver without any problem - thanks.
I have still one problem:
Printing from Windows works fine, but the printer always prints an empty page at the end of a print
job (something like an ending banner)! Within CUPS, my configuration is as follows:
# Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.1.21
# Written by cupsd on Wed Nov 30 09:13:25 2005
<DefaultPrinter Phaser_6300>
Info Phaser6300
Location Engineering
DeviceURI lpd://192.168.0.2/queue
State Idle
Accepting Yes
JobSheets none none
QuotaPeriod 0
PageLimit 0
KLimit 0
</Printer>
I didn't setup an starting/ending banner.
Any idea?
