Re: Epson Stylus Color 777

[Alf C Stockton <alf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you read the documentation that comes with gimp-print you will find out
how to add stp to your version of ghostscript. Start with the FAQ.html
that comes with gimp-print. You will also find in src/ghost/README
specifically how to add this driver and which ghostscript versions it can
be added to.
I have it working very well with my Epson Stylus color 680 which I think
in USofA is know as a 777.
