Prior to apsfilter, I tried the appropiate lpfitlters from the manual. I tried lprps and I tried the two solutions mentioned in The Complete FreeBSD, 3rd edition. I am very pleased to have it working and printing both plain ascii text files and PostScript files as well, neither of which I could do before installing apsfilter. However I cannot seem to get it to print in color. I have tried both the default color setting and several of the available color depths 16bpp and 24 bpp but I still get colors as grayscale. The asfilter documemtation does not really describe my problem. I am definately selecting color on the applications which generate the PS documents. If anyone has any expertise with this, I would be grateful for any suggestions.
