I didn't explain clearly enough. (My fault!) The printer is attached to a Win95 machine. I want to use samba and apsfilter on FreeBSD to print to that printer. I am printing to it now as postscript only (using a print filter I wrote), but I'd like to use apsfilter to translate documents for me into postscript. I'd love to be able to move the printer to the FreeBSD box. That would make it so much simpler, but the client wants the new printer on his desk, not in the backroom. Patrick
