[edit] General Questions

[edit] In which forum should I ask Compaq related questions?

Forum: Printers from other manufacturers

[edit] Where can I find a table of working Compaq printers?

http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi?make=Compaq


[edit] Compaq CJ600

[edit] Which printer is this similar to?

This is probably a remarked Lexmark Z22 printer.


[edit] Compaq 1400p USB

[edit] Which driver do I use?

Usually, Compaqs are relabeled Lexmarks. So you should try drivers for Lexmarks with the same maximum resolution as your Compaq. Either free drivers as listed on LinuxPrinting.org or drivers provided on http://www.lexmark.com/ for various models.

If at all possible, use free drivers. The lexmark drivers cause a great deal of problems, and do not work with free software like CUPS.
