Thread: Printing with old printer

    Printing with old printer

    I have an old laser printer (@1996) that isn't supported on anything past Windows ME (which is why I tri-boot 98SE, XP Pro, and Mandrake v9). Is there a way to print with this printer if it is not natively supported in Linux, either using stuff from the Windows driver file, or ...? I would hate to have to keep Windows just to print. Thanks.
