It will not break anything. That is what I do. You can use the attached patch
if you want. Add a UP_PROFILE variable to your /etc/apsfilterrc file, set it to
the profile you want and you should be set. For example, I have the following
in /etc/apsfilterrc:

UP_PROFILE=stc600p.upp

I sent this patch, and a patch for the SETUP script of apsfilter, to
set up a uniprint profile at install time, to Andreas Klemm, the port
creator/maintainer. He said he was very busy but I am hopefull that something
will be implemented in the next releas of apsfilter. I hope this helps.
