I just recently bought a HP 610C, and it works really fine.

There is a magicfilter-configurationfile in /etc/magicfilter 
called 'dj550c-filter'. I use this file for my HP 610C, and it
should normally work with other HP-Deskjet-Printers using PCL Level 3 as
well.
For Epson 660 and 760 printers, there is a file for stylus color printers 
called stylus_color_360dpi-filter. This should work.
Concerning apsfilter, I can't tell you anything, as I am only using
magicfilter.

Greetings,
Daniel
