apsfilter-6.1.1: [cancel report, fixed]

[gw <gw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi -

The problem I had with my machine rebooting is fixed.  

Using /dev/lpt0 with apsfilter, according to a post I found on Usenet (but rebooted before noting), doesn't work well.  Using /dev/lpa0, the polling device, fixed my problem and I have the test page complete.

Hi -

The printing seems to be -nearly- there, but once a page is finished, the machine reboots.  There isn't any warning, the machine does not go into ddb> mode, there are no coreflies left.  It just reboots.  Of course, once it reboots, lpd thinks there is -still- a job to print, so it tries again.  And reboots.  

Printing ASCII text produces no problems.  Printing ASCII text with simple-minded filters to remove 'stair-stepping' produces no problems.  It is only the more complicated printing that causes the problem.  

I have attached exactly one logfile, which is log.apsf.  

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
