BEFORE IT.
# To add a printer not effected by magicfilter, simply add it at the

#
# To completely take this file out of magicfilter's control, delete it
# (or at least the first line) and answer "no" when dpkg-reconfigure
# magicfilter asks you whether or not you want to proceed anyway.
#
# To take an entry that was generated by magicfilter's configure system
# and edit it manually, do this:
# 1. Copy the printer definition to the end of the file.
# 2. Run dpkg-reconfigure magicfilter and delete the printer from there.
# 3. Edit the definition at the end of the file as you like.
### END OF DEBCONF AREA. PLACE YOUR EDITS BELOW; THEY WILL BE PRESERVED.
