freebsd version 4.5 epson stylus color 600 printer I'm new to freebsd from the debian/redhat/slackware world and I want to get printing working in freebsd. I thought I had it with apsfilter but when I tried to print a test file with abiword, the output was.. %!PS-Adobe-2.0 %%Creator Abiword %%Title /usr/home/dlm/abiword_test.abw %%Orientation: Portrait %%DocumentPaperSizes: Letter %%DocumentNeededResources font NimbusRomNo9L-Regu font NimbusRomNo9L-Regu %%EndComments %%BeginProlog /FSF {findfont exch scalefont} bind def .....etc................. What I would like to do is set up cups. I did the 'make install clean' in the relevant ports directories, but when I try to setup my printer using the http://localhost:631/admin command, I get the error that Netscape is unable to locate the localhost:631 I guess my questions are: How do I remove/disable lpd? How do I install cups? Do I have to reconfigure any file permissions? thanks dale To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
