Steve,

If you're willing to spend a penny on a printer driver, mail the guys
from irseesoft, who make TurboPrint. I don't think there is a BJC6500
driver in the latest release, but it might be in the works (check on
http://www.irseesoft.de) I've recently bought TurboPrint 7 and am quite
happy with it. I have just started to bug them for a driver for the
Canon BJC-8200 Photo, which they say will be coming soon.

TurboPrint includes version 4 of ghostscript with 24-bit printing added,
and you can download the 5.10 version from their site. It adds the PS:
handler to your system, which you can use to print PostScript files to.
It's slower than the Studio interface, but maybe Irseesoft will make a
TurboPrint interface for PageStream 4, if we all bug them enough.

Or maybe Deron will add a TurboPrint driver. I read in the 3.0 manual
that Studio is recommended, but since that's not being updated any more
by Wolf, TurboPrint is the only thing left if you have a newer printer
...

Hello Wouter,

Many thanks. Yes I'll definitely have a look at TurboPrint especially as I
already have an early version of it.

Regards.
