Twould be nice if you could expound a bit on what /exactly/ the problem
is 
(error messages, whatnot), along with what printing sub-system you use
(lpr 
vs. cups vs. whatever).  Oh, and what printer you use would be helpful
as 
well :-)

==================

Error message: "printer not found"
Print system: lpr
Printer: Epson CS800 using GS uniprint drivers

from console "cat foo > lpr" works
test print in apsfilter works

printing from kmail, konqueror, kword, or anything else in KDE gives
error msg.
I have three resolutions and a "raw" printer. They are displayed in KDE
print manager. I did set one as my default. Clicking the "test" button
in KDE Print Manager gives error messsage.

Would it be better to change from lpr to lnprg or cups?

Thanks,

John
