I use lpr -P hp4l test.txt. Ok I now have it working, lol it was the permissions on the smbclient.conf file in the /usr/local/etc/apsfilter/hp4l directory. It was set to 600 for permissions IE rw for owner (IIRC) and I made it 777 now it works, what should the permissions be ? I have found through trial and error that the minimum seems to be 660 </me shrugs> BTW great software, now I fixed a minor problem, it works really great.
