cheers cosmica,
i do indeed have those files.
i need the drivers for the "kodak xls 8600 scsi processor device" i can print from the usual printer port (lpt1) but i cant print via the scsi connections as i need the above driver. printing a 100+mb tiff over an old fasioned printer port takes ages.

from what i can gather there isn't any scsi drivers as such more like a bit of software that utilises the scsi interface to print

basicly you attach the printer as you would any other scsi devise with a unique id etc and use whats known as an export module to allow you to print from photoshop in rasta mode via scsi

unfortunatly because of the age of the printer no export module was written for windows xp
the best method would be to set up a cheap pc with win 98se and just use it for printing as the module exists for that os

here is a link to the module for win 95 etc.http://wwwuk.kodak.com/global/en/ser...0Drivers.jhtml
and a link to the nessasery guides
