Title: C3000 - Printer Connection
Post by: gspd on December 19, 2004, 03:57:56 am

Hi,
I'm thinking of buying a C3000, but I need printing facility. Does anyone know which IR printers work on the C3000? Alternatively, I noticed a CF card USB Host at www.interpocket.co.uk will that work on a C3000 and can I connect a printer to that? A lot of questions, but I hope someone already has some experience with the C3000.

Well at the very least you don't have to deal with usb host issues.  The C3k has a built in usb host (hence the usb port).  Printing over usb is your only issue.  Check to see if the kernel supports usb printing.  Besides, you'll still need lpd on there.

Perhaps I'm misinformed, but for all I know (from Shirtpocket) the C3000 has no USB port.
