Hello, everybody! I have SimplyMepis installed in my hard drive, replacing Windows. I like it very much! I recently changed my printer over to SimplyMEPIS, following the instructions in Point and Click LINUX. The test page came out, but there was no text on it, only graphics. I typed a document using OpenOffice.org Writer, but couldn't get it to print. The printer drew up a page from the tray and quickly ejected it blank. Also have other PC problems. I lost the intro blue "matrix" screen when logging in and out. Would appreciate some help on this subject.

Thanks!

Go to linuxprinting.org and check for info on your printer. Printing under linux is okay but drivers can be a problem. If information on your printer model is hard to find you may have to experiment with different drivers.
I print with a Canon and had to try a few drivers before getting reasonable results. Turboprint provides good drivers but costs ~$35
