Hi one and all
I'm looking (yet again!) at colour laser printers, with a view to buying
one for our small LAN at home. One which takes my fancy is the Samsung
CLP-550N. In the blurb about this printer it says, under the heading,
"Fonts" 136 PostScript3, 45 PCL5CE
and later in the blurb under the heading "OS Compatibility" it says
PostScript3(PPD) (Windows 95/98/Me/NT4.0/2000/XP, Various Linux OS, Mac
OS 8.6~9.2/10.1~10.3), Samsung proprietary driver (Windows
95/98/Me/NT4.0/2000/XP)
I don't understand much of what it means, but I'm told that if get a
post script printer then all the drivers are generic, and hence I don't
have to worry about Linux compatibility.
Is someone out there able to tell me if the info above indicates that
this is a true post script printer or not.
Tia
