About:
Apsfilter is a magic printfilter, allowing you to print different document
types "automagically" without having to convert them manually into something
which is understood by your printer. Apsfilter is a mature and powerful
printing solution for any flavor of Unix running lpd or LPRng. It supports the
latest GhostScript version and 3rd-party printer drivers (such as hpijs, ijs,
hpdj, pcl3, and gimp-print). It autodetects lots of file, archive, and
compression types. It supports printing on local as well as on Appletalk, Unix,
and Windows remote printers. General and "per printer-queue" based config files
allow you to configure the printer for your needs. The lpr command line options
allow you to change printing parameters like print quality, orientation, duplex
mode, etc. "on the fly" without having to edit any config file. A SETUP script
helps you to test various supported ghostscript drivers prior installation,
makes the necessary entries in /etc/printcap, creates spool directories, and
creates apsfilter default config files as needed. A handbook in HTML is
available. Several tools are also included: "aps2file" allows you to print to a
file via apsfilter, "apspreview" previews files as generated by apsfilter using
gv and friends, and "apsfilter-bug" assists you in doing bug and problem
reports.
