the RHES V3 update 4 does not support it.

that wasn't an option. The application being installed requires 
RHES/RHEW V3 update 4. I spent about 10 hours trying to MAKE it work, 
before we finally went to the redhat knowledgebase.. long story, I 
thought I was chasing a floppy USB issue and it ended up being  
non-supported SATA issue.

almost cheaper to buy new printers than replace ink cartridges! at 
least if you get OEM..
after about 5 years I finally gave my son my old Epson 660 and got a 
newer/faster/quieter color 880.
I still have my 10+ year old Panasonic KX-P1124, still printing from 
the original box of ribbons I bought:) a little WD-40 on them makes em 
last longer!
I've been using it for the last 2 years to print multi-part service 
orders.
