usb printer...Rrrr!

[Emerson Mounger]

I too have an Epson C60 printer and would love to get it to work with  
Yellowdog. I have the same problem as Ken does. In the how to I get to  
the point where I am supposed to use printtool but for whatever reason  
printtool does not seem to exist. If someone can help with a solution  
to this problem it would be greatly appreciated. This is the only  
reason that I don't use YDL more often. I need to be able to print.

Thanks,
Emerson
