[S.u.S.E. Linux] ASCII Prints Landscape
I have installed my HP 5MP in YaST and, indeed, I have no trouble printing PostScript files. But ASCII comes out in landscape mode in a tiny print size. Under Red Hat I used to just do: $lpr text.txt and it worked fine. Do I have to do something different on SuSE 5.2?

You need to edit your /etc/apsfilterrc file. Search for FEATURE=2n and change it to FEATURE=1n. That should do the trick. Luck, Mark Dwight Johnson wrote:

This should be in the FAQ of SuSE, under printing. They should also put it in the next book that they send out with SuSE Linux. I suspect there is little chance of the latter happening, as SuSE seem to be rather slow in making changes. Mark Wagnon wrote:

Edit /etc/apsfilterrc search for FEATURE and set that variable accordingly. On 25-May-98 Dwight Johnson wrote:
