BTW if you want to use the fax/scanner part of your all-in-one with dsl and if hplip supports your device (see their web site to check), you could try the hplip extension in testing...


When I've got more experience of DSL I'll give your extension a try. Even though I don't use fax and the device is already set up to scan on F8 and Win XP using HLIP in DSL would/should give me a full print cabablility.

In CUPS I'm just printing mono at 600x600 dpi using a P1000 profile as an expedient. Works well.

They aren't 2 separate devices, but 1 device with 2 partitions.  The main reason is for compatibility.  This was discussed in these forums, see them for exact details on the decision.  You seem to imply there is a problem with it, but there isn't... ?  Afaik, that partition is ext2 (which by default is unreadable under windows - and the default native driver for those devices in windows only supports 1 partition) but under most cases you don't need to access that anyways.


Thanks for the explanation. It all makes sense now and I've got no problems with this arrangement as I use a separate USB pendrive for each DSL variant.

I was surprised more than anything as I thought the 2 partition setup was for ZIP and a single one for USB.

Still puzzles me why F8 should show a separate desktop ikon for each partition. For one moment I thought DSL had mysteriously migrated to my printers USB drive.
