LaserJet 4L
Authored by: ScooterComputer on Oct 04, '02 10:22:16AM

I am currently using a LJ5L. It is NOT postscript capable. I use the ESP LaserJet family driver (which comes with CUPS in Jag) and print quality is good. I also have Ghostscript installed and have set up a Postscript RIP spool as well...this acts like a PS printer, rips the PS to PCL, and then sends it to the 5L. The instructions for setting this up are outside the scope of this hint, so I won't go into detail, but due to memory limitations this doesn't work very well on my bone-stock 5L.

Going on what I read early in the summer I assumed that the CUPS software which was going to be released in 10.2 was dependent on ghostscript so I had not installed it. Once I realized that gs was not there I installed ESP ghostscript for CUPS and now the print quality is good. I would like to share the printer on the network. Any direction is appreciated (we have an all Mac Network 8.6, 9 and some X) Thanks.
