Printing

[Ted Ozolins]

On Slackware 8.1, I had printing (lpr/lprng) using a Canon BJC-210 
working nicely. I did the upgrade to 9.0 and now I can not get it to 
work no matter how or what I do. I then decided to setup printing on 
another machine with a clean install of Slackware 9.0 and still no joy. 
If I send a jop to the printer, I get the usual prompt that its 
happening but nothing appears at the printer. If I issue "lprm -a" the 
print job is listed and removed (as it should) I have lp0 detected at 
boot and the bjc-210 is detected so that is not the problem (parport is 
loaded) I can "cp somefile /dev/lp0" and it prints, but "lpr somefile" 
renders absalutely nothing. Looking at my printcap file, the line:

:if=/etc/apsfilter/basedir/bin/apsfilter:\

does not look correct. Should this not point to:

/etc/apsfilter/canonbub/apsfilterrc  ???

# APS2_BEGIN:printer2
canonbub:\
     :af=/var/spool/lpd/canonbub/acct:\
     :if=/etc/apsfilter/basedir/bin/apsfilter:\
     :lf=/var/spool/lpd/canonbub/log:\
     :lp=/dev/lp0:\
     :mx#0:\
     :sd=/var/spool/lpd/canonbub:\
     :sh:
# APS2_END

TIA
