Dumb Software Notes


Here's some dumb facts that might be useful to you, if you happen to stumble across them.

OS X Drivers for CanoScan N1220U: Canon doesn't have any, but "VuePrint" from www.hamrick.com works great under OS X, and supports that scanner and a lot of others. Great stuff, $40 shareware, I love it. (Free version prints "$40" all over your scans, ha ha.)

OS X Drivers for Epson Photo Stylus 875DCS: Epson doesn't have any, although they support the 875DC, but gimp-print from gimp-print.sourceforge.net did the trick. Amazing! Totally amazing! Supports a lot of other printers, too. They said it needed Ghostscript installed, but it seems to work fine without it. (?).

The instructions it showed right after installation were sufficient to get up and running. It's all through the Print Center's "advanced" option.
