texconfig's `modes' for xdvi and dvips don't include "epsonc," the driver
for Epson LQ printers. My BJC-4000 has a BJ mode and Epson LQ mode, and
I must run it in LQ mode for it to be compatible with apsfilter's drivers.
I could have sworn selecting an epsonc driver when first installing the
teTeX port, and tried editing config.ps, to change M to epsonc. Metafont
complains how epsonc and resolution 360 is a mismatch, ignores the mode,
and then can't guess a mode for 360 resolution and fails. Has anyone an
idea what to do? It worked with the default configuration (*slaps himself
for not backing it up*).
