It probably sounded harder than it actually is. ;-)
It's just that I looked the last time for a new version - let's say - 9 months ago.

No problem to download the few nibbles. ;-)
Though I still have no DSL and no flatrate.

But now I have another problem:
gs/hpijs doesn't produce output anymore. :-(

There is no relation between this and apsfilter. :-)
And this isn't meant as an off-topic question to the list.
It's just that want to share my desperation. ;-)

<Desperation>

I'm really confused.
The only thing I did was to uninstall an older version of ghostscript from _another_ dir and
several re-compilations and -installations of hpijs and ghostscript.
I still can use ghostscript to display .ps and .pdf file and print to other (non-postscript)
printers.

The only thing that doesn't work is the `ijs' device!
Messages like `unable to spawn ijs server=/usr/bin/hpijs' are displayed.
Sometimes no error is shown, but still no output.

But, if someone encountered the same problem, you're welcome! ;-)

Kind regards
