    Perhaps someone can help me.  I'm running FreeBSD 4.2 with the
latest port of Netatalk. (with Asun patches). Filesharing through
Appletalk and AFP/IP are fine.  The problem is, I can't get the printing
to work from a Mac.  Printing is fine locally and from PCs.   I have an
old HP Deskjet 855cxi connected to my FreeBSD box.  The papd.conf file
is as follows:

"Callisto:pr=lp:pd=/usr/local/etc/ppds/APLWNTR1.PPD:"

    Everytime I try to print, I get this:

%PS Adobe 3.0
            %%Title:(untitled)
                        %%Creator (simpletext :LaserWriter 8.8.6.5
                                %%c
instead of what I'm actually trying to print.  I think I've tried about
every .ppd file there is (restarting netatalk each time).  Can anyone
help?  Thanks.
