By all means, give CUPS a try though.
Thanks to you all for your hints/suggestions - I'll try to get up CUPS

Hi,
For a system set up from scratch (7.1) I'm about to set up printing.
Printer: Minolta C351 (basically a networked PS-Printer also capable
of color)
My requirements: Print from mutt (mail), print text files, print
PS-files with the ability to print duplex and 2-up both in color and
b/w.
I prefer print/apsfilter from ports. To get color postscript printing
and duplex printing you may need to change the default configuration,
which will probably end up somewhere under /usr/local/etc/apsfilter
