5218885Sdim# This enables a simple local "raw" printer, hooked up to the first
6218885Sdim# parallel port.  No kind of filtering is done, so everything you pass
7218885Sdim# to the "lpr" command will be printed unmodified.
8218885Sdim#
9218885Sdim# Remember, for further print queues you're going to add, you have
10218885Sdim# to choose different spool directories (the "sd" capability below),
11218885Sdim# otherwise you will greatly confuse lpd.
12218885Sdim#
13218885Sdim# For some advanced printing, have a look at the "apsfilter" package.
14218885Sdim# It plugs into the lpd system, allowing you to print a variety of
15218885Sdim# different file types by converting everything to PostScript(tm)
16218885Sdim# format.  For more information about apsfilter visit

20218885Sdim# If you don't have a PostScript(tm) printer, don't panic, but do
21280031Sdim# also install the latest "ghostscript" package for best printer support.
