Have you ever tried to set your FooBar 1000 printer up for use with
FreeBSD?  Couldn't find the filters?  Well it's kinda like a BarFoo 4435,
but I don't even know what a filter for one of those is supposed to look
like.  Wouldn't it be nice to be able to look in one place for print filters?

I am starting an archive for print filters and printcap entries.  If you
have a filter that you would like to donate to the archive please do.
I will post information from this archive periodically and make it
available via ftp.  Maybe it could even get into the Handbook.


If you have a filter/printcap entry to donate please send it to:

        To:     rsnow@txdirect.net
        Subj:   Print Filter Archive

Thanks in advance.
