Hi,
I'm setting up a fBSD system, and I've managed to make the printer to
print with lpr xxx.txt, with the staircase effect, though.
I have fBSD 4-1. A HP Laserjet 4L.
Then I installed gs 6.01, apsfilter 5.4.2.
After configuration of the apsfilter, it prints but....
It takes quite a while before the printing is executed.
The staircase effect is still there.
The printers memory is receiving the doc, but it seems that an EOF or
someting is missing, so the printer never starts to execute the
printing, the LED is just blinking, so I have to start printing
manually on the printer.
More....
The doc is in a4, but it seems that everything is 4 times too big, that
is, only a 4th of the doc on each paper, and with gigant letters.

The lpq, and so on, are working, but I can't remove anything in the
queue with lprm, neither as user or root. I have to erase the queue
manually in the spool.

What am I doing wrong here? Any tips?
Regards,
Thomas
