This port is for a printer filter of EPSON PM-900C. The filter is called Photo Image Print System for Linux and there exist the filters for other EPSON bubble jet printers. By using this driver you can print out as high quality as you use the Windows driver. See the below URL: WWW: http://www.epkowa.co.jp/ This port has a modified filter "filter900.rev" which is useful to print out more than one page. Then you execute the next command: /usr/local/libexec/pips900/setup to setup /etc/printcap, make a spool in /var/spool/lpd/ and so on. To run with Japanese/French/Germany/Spanish/Italian/Dutch/ Portugue/Korean messages, you should execute as follows: env LANG=ja_JP pips900 env LANG=fr pips900 env LANG=de pips900 env LANG=es pips900 env LANG=it pips900 env LANG=nl pips900 env LANG=pt pips900 env LANG=ko pips900 (*) env LANG=zh_CN pips900 (*)(**) env LANG=zh_TW.Big5 pips900 (**) (*) These do not work well.
