this is the /etc/apsfilterrc.PS_600dpi where the

The /etc/smb.conf
[phaser850]
comment = Phaser850 Postscript-Farbdrucker
path = /tmp
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
print ok = Yes
printer name = raw
oplocks = No
share modes = No
this is what I ment about the RAW Printer.
Samba uses "printer name = raw"
and printcap diffines this printer....
