The "pips-sc40s" filter is an external program supplied
by the "pips" printer driver package (see the handbook
for the link).

The script "pips/sc40s" is just a small helper for apsfilter
to set up the correct options for that driver.

If you install your "pips" package, apsfilter should be able
to find that filter program.
