It works pretty good on the windoze boxes (networked printer) but I don't seem to be able to get any drivers to work with it on FreeBSD 4.9R I've got ghostscript and apsfilter installed. But when I select Lexmark in apsfilter, and try to print, I get an error about installing the lm1100 filter. I can't find any documentation that talks about installing this filter on FreeBSD. So I'm wondering if going with CUPS would be easier? or at least something else to dig into. I've spent about 3 hours fiddling with the current setup to no avail. Any Suggestions? links? Thanks. -gerry
