Thanks for replying. I installed apsfilter, and set the printer as "cdeskjet", as the program recommended. I have all of the required programs/libs installed. However, it still prints a line of garbage, then forwards the paper out. Is there something else I need to do -- set the PRINTER env var, or call lpr with a different option?
