Next up....printing



I have spent the last 2 days trying to set up an Epson Stylus Color 800
on my machine. From root I can cat 'textfile' > /dev/lp0. But that is
all. I have magicfilter installed with stcolor filter specified. From
what I've read, only root can access the printer? There must be a way
around this.  The other 2 people in the household will surely rebel if I
am the only one that can print. I have been reading how-to's and man
pages till I am blue. I can not access lists.debian.org for some reason.
Any help will be appreciated. We are running kernel 2.2 

Thanks for your help.
