local printer ? i dunno

[David Erdman <david@erdius.net>]

been having loads of problems getting a printer to work in debian.  i keep 
getting this.....  i have apsfilter loaded right now (as opposed to 
magicfilter)...and lpr. the printer is an hp 4L laserjet.
i am using printtool to configure everything.   here is the error? i am 
getting.  either way this is preventing me from printing.

Oct  3 19:29:10 ganymede lpd[968]: lp0: job could not be printed

	:mx#0:\
	:sh:\
