Print to printer with no PS support
Hi all,
We've just recently inherited a Sharp MX-2600N printer in our office. Most users on my network are using Windows which has no trouble printing to this device (PCL drivers work fine). However I have a couple of users on my network (myself included) who run Macs. Now, on investigation this printer doesn't have the PS module setup (paid for at a $700 premium extra) and I don't really fancy spending a load of money just for two users!
I've been reading up on Ghostscript, Foomatic Rip and Pxlmono but it's all a bit gibberish to me and I can't get my head around making it all work.
I can set it up as a Generic PCL printer on Mac but there's no options for print and the output quality is poor.
I guess what I'm looking for is a way to process output from a Mac into PCL so I get all the options like colour, duplex and stapling etc.
Any help would be greatly received!
