Have heard everything from de-install Gimp, install borderless Gimp for
the Epson 1280; get update Panther 10.3.2; also take out the 1280 driver
and put in a 1270 driver; lie to your software (that's original
enough); get
more drivers from Epson, etc.
"Your printer is controlled by Panther, not by your printer software."
says one support guru. I believe him.
I de-installed mYPATIENCE and have installed iQUIT. My day's already
brighter, that swelling in my back pocket is lessening, and I hope to
get mYSELF back 2Work before management comes back from
hERSHOPPING.
I will look into ImagePrint RIP. This is a very cerebral group of
people here, I value your advice.

Panther and PS CS, Epson 1280.
The best thing I have done on my PowerBook G4 alum 15" is to go
online and order a used G3 beige; onto this computer I will
install OS 9 and, with a 50pin scsi card, will be able to use one
film scanner; with a usb pci adapter card I will be able to use
my Epson1280.
Panther controls your printer, not your printer software.
A friend says he rides Honda Gold Wing rather than a Harley is
that he bought it to ride not to work on. I feel the same about
computers.
I understand your pain. If Epson does not make a custom driver for
the 1280 designed for Panther than you're basically doomed. Unless,
a third party RIP, like ImagePrint who is now compatible with
Panther directly supports the 1280. If I were you, I'd keep an eye
out on eBay as I regularely see ImagePrint RIPs come up for sale
for dirt cheap.
What are you trying to do here? Gimp-Print supports the 1280 just
fine.
