I am having tremendous difficuly getting my champion-1.2 machine to send
information to the printer
I set up the printspooler with the kde queue tool, i have tried all the
different spooling systems there
I have also set up the specific printer using the printtool.

The printer and the machine communicate, at least something is happening
because when i cat a file and direct its output to the printer device
(cua0 or ttyS0) the printer status light blinks as if it is receiving
information, but the printer produces no output

The printer is an Epson Stylus 850, and there is not a specific filter
for it, but the filter i have chosen is the stylus 800, my 850's book
tells me this 'driver' should work.

Any suggestions?
Anyone had success setting one of these printers up under ydl
champion-1.2?

Thanks
Darren
