I suggest apsfilter. I have much better experience with it: apt-get --purge remove magicfilter apt-get install apsfilter apsfilterconfig lpc reread
Check if regular printing works with lpr PSFILE or a2ps ASCII-FILE. Then in KDE (logged in as the regular user) go to ControlCenter->System->Printing and set the print system (at bottom) to UNIX-LPD-print-system. Now, printing for that user should work even from KDE. Test it by printing a text file from Konqueror. This worked for me and now my printing system is set up properly the first time. :-) Bye, Steffen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
