I enabled debugging.  The log file says this:
2000-11-19-00:33:01.173 matrix lp: Printer_open: printer 'lp' missing
lp_device value

My /etc/printcap looks like this:

# APS1_BEGIN:printer1
# - don't delete start label for apsfilter printer1
# - no other printer defines between BEGIN and END LABEL
lp|Printer1 auto:\
    :lp=/dev/null:\
    :if=/etc/apsfilter/basedir/bin/apsfilter:\
    :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
    :lf=/var/spool/lpd/lp/log:\
    :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/acct:\
    :mx#0:\
    :sh:
# APS1_END - don't delete this
			    
In addition, once the job is in the queue, the output of the lpq command looks
like this:

Printer: lp@matrix  'Printer1 auto'
 Queue: 1 printable job
  Server: pid 5429 active
   Unspooler: pid 5430 active
    Status: IF filter 'apsfilter' filter msg - 'Error object: ' at

     Time

     14:33:41

What's going on?!?

Thanks for your help so far.
