Help! Download/Install Epson LX-300 driver on DSL

romy_albano · 06-12-2009, 06:03 PM

I discovered DSL recently. And, I loved it; had it installed on my old AMD k-6 501 MHz desktop which is still working. My problem now, is: where can I download a suitable driver for the Epson LX-300 dot-matrix printer which I intend to use. I understand the driver would be a zip file. I don't know much about Linux. So your much needed expertise is needed, please... Where can I download the said driver and how can it be installed in mydesktop? Thank you for your help....

hey dog, don't know about the driver issue
but dig this:
Tinycore is the new DSL, made by the maker of MyDSL
( http://www.tinycorelinux.com/ )
it is more up-to-date and better than dsl

you might also wanna try dsl-n and feather-0.75

I am making a new tinycore 2.0 usb for my site so check out the early screenshots and the 1.4.3 download/flavors too

and theres netbootcd which can net-install any major distro
