with debian.
I have used freebsd with apsfilter without problems.
Here is a copy of my printcap.
My problem is that nothing will print but when i check the que it is empty.
Apparently
Is there any way to rerun the apsfilter setup.
If so where is the setup script located at?
Thanks Alot

Never used apsfilter, but such scripts are supposed to live in /usr/sbin and
are usally named package-config.

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
Apsfilter 4.9.1-10 has not been installed correctly (dselect) and I get the
message:
dpkg: error processing apsfilter (--remove)
Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
reinstall it before attemting a removal
The problem is I am unable to get rid of it using dselect remove
Hi!
When using apsfilter for printing to an ethernet printer the
input filter 'if=..apsfilter...' is _not_ run. This has to do with the
fact that normally the printer spooler does the filtering. But if I
mention the printer itself in the printcap file, like
:lp=:\
:rm=195.48.69.8
Hi,
I don't know what apsfilter does, but you probably need to write a
script to call the apsfilter files. I'm using magicfilter to print
postscript files to a non-postscript printer on the network. Printing
to lp calls my input filter remote-filter which pipes the output
from magicfilter to lp
