I just saw that I didn't make myself totally clear in original post:(
I'm using mutt for email on this machine.
I just tried installing muttprint, but apparently uses "make" from linux? It 
wouldn't build for me because of the -C switch for langinfo. 
Apsfilter printed out a nice test page, but so far, that's it. Won't print a 
file or email with mutt.
I only have 6 gig for 4.3 on this computer, so was hoping not to install a 
bunch of extra programs, but may have to. I'm just trying to print a few files 
per week.

I really appreciate the time and help guys.

Mike
