1. We are aware of the following problems with GS-LPD - Documents containing color images can not be printed on monochrome printers - Print results shift upwards when printing in landscape mode 2. pips plus only works with the LPRng spooler and is only tested on Red Hat Linux 3. The following tasks were selected during the Debian installation - Desktop environment - Print Server

Results primarily based on evaluation on Red Hat Linux 9. Results primarily based on evaluation on Fedora Core. Results based on evaluation on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Can not correctly print when using USB backend of CUPS v1.5.3 or later. Network is OK.
