Install CUPS from the Solaris Software companion CD and follow the documentation from http://www.cups.org.

Thereafter, install GhostScript

Configure GhostScript to print to supported devices

Supported Devices by GhostScript


Sadly, the Fuji Xerox machines I use in office and at my client's site, all cannot be supported on Solaris with or without GhostScript/Cups.

I'll be away...

...from 16th~28th Apr, I'll be away in Tibet... I promise to bring soil back for all of you. Hehe.

I'm going to be super dusty, dirty and suffering from high altitude sickness while in Tibet.

Btw, Gab, I got you your spare battery, but it's a 3rd party one @ $18, the original is $70. Let me know if you want the original, it's no problem to make a switch, the shop is ok with it.

nivlA is away...

away from 26/03 till the 31/03 Down Under.

Diary of events past...

As of now (0037hrs, 17/03/2007), I am at home...
Most of you will be home too.
Obviously, I am awake, since I am typing this post.
Equally obviously, you are currently awake and reading this post...
'Currently' is such a wonderful word.  
In the language of non-sentient beings, it is like the now() of the object time.
i.e. time.now() = currently;
Why is this post titled 'Diary of events past...'?
Well, obviously time.now() <> currently;
Go figure!  :-)
