I seem to recall that on LNW there was an article about HP having
produced a full Linux friendly privter driver and software package -
probably not resolve this problem but just thought you might want to
look at it.

I have installed CUPS,  the Common Unix Print System on my Debian
GNU/Linux 
box  "tren".     The printer is an  hplj1300.

It prints the CUPS test page,  pages from Mozilla (Web browser),
Abiword 
(word processor)  OK,  and also prints from the konsole  using   | lpr.

It also does postscript pictures  OK.

With the exception of the "konsole"  none of those is part of KDE.  They
are 
mostly GNU.

I can't find out how to configure  the printing bit of kmail.  
I have to save  e-mail as a file and then print that !
Not critical,  but not like it was with the older printing regime.

Anyone else running CUPS ?

Geoff.
