I'm thinking of changing my printing system from good-old lpr to cups.
Mainly because my (home) network computers can find the main printer
more easy with cups than with /etc/printcap (windows and os-x machines)
Installing cups should not be too difficult. I have a very goo how2 for
it. However, what about the printing filters?
With lpr I use apsfilter and that works very very well for all kind of
printjobs. Will cups take care of this too? What do I look for as a
replacement for apsfilter then?
I have had a bit of a time setting up cups. I am trying to use the pips
filters for it, but it's not working at the moment. I can print using
the default CUPS filters, but they are very poor quality. I am using an
Epson 2200. Give it a try, maybe we can get it figured out together. I
have used cups with a great deal of success under Linux, but
unfortunately it has been a pain in the rear under FreeBSD.
