OK I have a big hairy Ricoh that does both PostScript and PCL. Under
Slackware I fire up apsfilter to set it up. What's the deal with Knoppix/KDE?
I click on the penguin and get to a screen that is supposed to set up the
printer but my choices are FAX, print to pdf file and so on. How do I add
just my standard /dev/lp0 printer? And where is /etc/printcap hiding?
