I am keen to setup a FreeBSD 5.3 Release box (in the next few days) as = print server for various clients in the network. The parallel port printer lpt1 is directly attached to the FreeBSD 5.3 = box. I have read the printing section in FreeBSD handbook online. The topic = of filters seem to be too complicated. As a step-1 in my endeavour, I am more interested in printing from the = FreeBSD box particularly pages/images from Firefox. I require following info : (1) Do filters have to be installed to print graphic image ? (2) What filter should I use with Kyocera FS-680 mono Laser printer ? (3) Any simple step by step instructions for FS-680 setup ? Any info or pointers is well regarded... Regards Pand Gopal=20
