linux printer driver


Hi,

I'm looking for the printer driver for the printer "epson stylus C66"
I looked in the kde configuratiescherm but there is only a driver for the C64.
I tried that one but it does not work correctly.

I'm using Fedora core 4

I'm also looking for sites where i can find drivers for linux, not only for printers but for other hardware too


thx

most "drivers" in linux are already in the kernel, there is no drivers site like in windoze (thanx god, I hate all these damn pay-and-you-will-get-your-driver site for windoze). Google is usually the way to find out what to use to make an hardware to work in linux...

About printers, you probably want to visit linuxprinting.org, if they don't have a driver, it is very unlikely that you will find one
