Er, well, actually I installed it recently and jusr red the main doc on how to install it... it's all straightforward, it autodetects the printer and can be done via a www config tool, all very friendly - and CLI is also available, of course. I think you do not need magicfilter, CUPS replaces BSD lp* with new versions that use the included HP or Epson drivers; as for postscript, I really don't know... all I know is that after installing and adding my printer I was able to print correctly images (never could do it before), text, Postscript, HTML, etc, all with the default settings the tools have /(i.e. lpr - .... ). best regards, fsm -- Frederico Serrano Muñoz GNU: http://www.gnu.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian: http://www.debian.org SDF - Public Access Unix Systems - http://sdf.lonestar.org
