Last time I did that, it didn't ask what printer, but which
printer _filter_.  So I invoke another shell, `dpkg -L magicfilter`
to them the filters, and grep them to find what I want.

If that doesn't work, install a close one, look at devices
supported by gs and tweak the filter.

Not exactly intuitive for a new user.
