Re: magicfilter trouble (was: apsfilter on Epson Stylus Color... Who can help?)

FWIW:

Here's /etc/printcap on this machine:
lp|esc660|Epson Stylus colour 660:\
        :lp=/dev/lp0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/esc660:\
        :sh:pw#80:pl#66:px#1440:mx#0:\
        :if=/etc/magicfilter/StylusColor-600@720dpi-filter:\
        :af=/var/log/lp-acct:lf=/var/log/lp-errs:


You also want to install everything that magicfilter 'suggests'; all the
converting programs that do the actual work aren't installed if you
'apt-get install' magicfilter.
You can find the names of the programs by grepping through the filter file
and checking the against the contents file. Or just run a pass through
dselect. ;)
