Sorry, I noticed your messages, but forgot to perform these tests. The last line of the current psonly600-filter isn't (even now) the same as your 2008 modification. It is (at least in my case): `default pipe /usr/pkg/bin/a2ps -1 -B --borders=no -o -' So, I did as follows: - installed just magicfilter and used the /etc/printcap file as you suggested, in particular with `if=/usr/pkg/libexec/magicfilter/psonly600-filter' (unmodified); - installed also enscript and created a `psonly600alt-filter' where the last line is exactly the one of your modification: `default pipe /usr/pkg/bin/enscript -B -p-' In both cases, the printer generated only a long series of blank pages (I stopped it manually). The /usr/pkg/libexec/magicfilter/ directory contains a lot of filters; if you think that some other could be worth testing, let me know. In any case, thank you so much! Rocky
