Epson FX-980 & linux:

[John Broome]

Hi all,

I'm a linux guy, not a filepro guy.  We have a client that is currently
running FP on a SCO box, we were hired to upgrade to ver 5 of filepro
and move it over to a linux box.

That part was easy and has been completed.  Now what we're doing is
moving the client off of serial green screens and serial printers to
linux PCs and parallel printers, which will connect to the linux FP
server over SSH.

Client is using Epson FX-980 printers which will do both serial and
parallel.  I have used the great google oracle and have not seen a
solution to this.

Is anyone out in FP land using the FX-980 connected to a linux host, and
if so, are you able to get it printing?

Thanks.
