Dear folks from the documentation,

using FreeBSD for the recent years on a daily basis on the desktop for my
job as a self-employed information broker I'd like first of to express my
thanks to all who work on this wonderful project.

As now pointed out on slashdot, this article (
http://www.ofb.biz/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=321) is about
easily setting up a printer.

This is the only downside of FreeBSD: The bad documentation of apsfilter
as the easy way to printing. It would be absolutely sufficient to put this
as chapter in the handbook - with the permission of the author of course.
This would help the most people with installing the system. The rest may
furtheron write printcaps and fiddle with device-names.

What do you think?

Kind regards


Jan Hendrik Montag
