Hi, 
  I just became a memeber of this group as i am planning to purchase  
a printer mainly for b&w printing.  
  Regarding your enquiries: 
1- You will not have any problem reading access to NTFS from linux. 
If you only need to read files from there (copying files from NTFS 
to a linux partition), it will be perfectly fine. 
2- However if you want write access to windows file system from 
linux, NTFS is risky. You very likely risk file corruption.  
F32 is perfectly fine. I am having F32 partions on my machine which 
i use to store the files i want to use from both windows and linux. 
3- Windows does not recognize any linux file system. It only sees 
them as unkonwn file systems. 
 
I am having my own questions that i will soon post here. 
 
Best regards, Ramin

Move to quarantaine
