ran SETUP, now what



Hi, apsfilter helpers.

I am running Slackware 7.1

I am using an Okipage 6e printer, attached to a
parallel port.  I have a new motherboard so the
parallel port is pretty moden.

Linux reports the following as it boots:
  
   parport0: PC-style at 0X378 [SPP,PS/2]
    lp0: using parport0 (polling).

The Okipage is in LJ4 mode; I put it there with the
DOS utility.  All old DOS LP4 software works OK.

I ran /usr/lib/aspfilter/SETUP and then test printed
the tiger and all was good.

Next I went to Netscape and tried to print a page: I
selected:

	Print command: lpr

A page (actually about ten pages) printed out, but it
looks like PS code.

That's all I know.

Is there something else I should do like edit my
/etc/printcap file?  There are no apsfilter stuff in
my /etc/printcap file at the moment.

Thank you all for your help,
