I removed the magicfilter package from my system, and installed
apsfilter instead. I have used apsfilter in the past with success on
my slackware system.
However, after I installed it, I cannot print anything.
For instance, if I type "lp file.txt", I get the following message:
no printcap for printer 'ascii'
job 'cfA962localhost' transfer to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed after 1 attempts
What does this mean, and how do I fix this?
Here is what my /etc/printcap file looks like:
# begin /etc/printcap

Any hints?
Thanks!
