I should really make better notes when I fix these things,
but here's the steps I took to get everything going. I'm
using a Canon BJ-6000 with the BJ-600 drivers. Anyway,
this is with stable. Here's the install order:
1. gs and gsfonts
2. lprng
3. a2ps
4. enscript
5. html2ps
6. psutils
7. apsfilter
I might have missed some package, but this is the order.
Then after going through the config of apsfilter, it
prints a test page, (which always works) and then
saved it. Then I ran the checkpc program, and everything
now works. I can print with Star Office, XV, etc. The
only thing that doesn't print yet is gimp... which I'll
figure out. Hopefully this might help.
Regards,
Dana
