Erwin,
This is the trick:
# /etc/printcap: printer capability database. See printcap(5).
# You can use the filter entries df, tf, cf, gf etc. for
# your own filters. See the printcap(5) manual page for further
# details.

You Sir, are the man! I hope the folks at SuSE take note of this. This has
been quite difficult for me. Printing has never been one of my strong points,
and I never felt like I had the correct documentation in my hand to solve this
problem. Do you know where I can get a good explanation of apsfilters? The
SuSE book is a bit short on what they really do. I hope this isn't an RTFS
situation.
I have an HP laserjet 4 si/mx. Is the an optimal configuration for that? How
would I know?
What is your preference in Bier? ( or however you spell that in Dutch.) I owe
you one!
BTW is there a good way to print manpages? e.g., printcap(5)
Steve
