Additionally I have to say that print quality also increased
by setting flag 0x8 (ECP mode). Before I seemed to have character
losses, that cause some little sparkles in my apsfilter test page.
I always thought it's due to the hpdj driver ... but now it seems=20
more like character losses or something like that ...

	lpr -C high:presen:cmyk test.ps

produces now a fine high quality output. Cool.

Would it perhaps be possible, that the ppc driver chooses
something like ECP as default so that not so many people
get problems like this ?

Perhaps I should add this into the apsfilter FAQ or as info
into the apsfilter port....

ppc0: <Parallel port> at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 flags 0x8 on isa0
ppc0: Generic chipset (ECP-only) in ECP mode
ppc0: FIFO with 16/16/15 bytes threshold
ppbus0: IEEE1284 device found /NIBBLE/ECP
Probing for PnP devices on ppbus0:

ppi0: <Parallel I/O> on ppbus0
lpt0: <Printer> on ppbus0
