I have written a ghostscript driver for Hewlett-Packard DeskJet printers
understanding PCL-3 and am looking for beta testers.
The driver is mainly intended for the following models:
500, 500C, 510, 520, 540, 550C, 560C, 850C, 855C.
However, I am also interested in learning to which extent it can be used with
other PCL-3 printers. The driver does *not* support PPA printers like the 820C.
A beta tester should meet the following requirements:
- PCL-3 printer available :-)
- access to ghostscript sources (preferably 3.33 or 4.03)
- enough programming knowledge in C to be able to compile applications and
to fix minor problems
- willingness to send me a beta report about tests made and availability
for follow-up tests on corrected versions
I don't mind if someone wants to obtain the driver without doing beta tests.
You should be prepared, though, to encounter some serious bugs. Anyone wishing
to obtain the sources should send me a mail (a news posting is hardly
appropriate) and state explicitly whether s/he wishes to act as a beta tester
or an ordinary user.
