[Glastonbury] Printer query

[Cherry Mulliss]

Hi
My Epson R200 works brilliantly with Ubuntu / Mac OS X (Jaguar and 
Tiger) / Mac OS 9 / Windows (98 and XP) over my (very<g>) mixed network. 
It does ordinary and photo printing without any problems. It has 5 
separate cartridges and you can buy it for about £70 or so.  We have 
been using it for about a year now for everyday business printing and my 
sons GCSE art photography.

Hope that is helpful
