But today, printing often assumes that you're using CUPS. Of course apsfilter is great, it even has "input detection" and automatic conversion for files to print, like % lpr holiday.jpg and "pretty printing" with syntax highlighting for sources, like % lpr excellent.c But if you feed PS to a PS printer, apsfilter might be too much overhead. It's easier to simply change the PS data to contain the settings needed for duplex enabled. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
