Hi,

I am a Newbie to Unix, FreeBSD and to this group.

I am keen to setup a FreeBSD 5.3 Release box (in the next few days) as print server for various clients in the network.

The parallel port printer lpt1 is directly attached to the FreeBSD 5.3 box.

I have read the printing section in FreeBSD handbook online. The topic of filters seem to be too complicated.

As a step-1 in my endeavour, I am more interested in printing from the FreeBSD box particularly pages/images from Firefox.

I require following info :

(1) Do filters have to be installed to print graphic image ?
(2) What filter should I use with Kyocera FS-680 mono Laser printer ?
(3) Any simple step by step instructions for FS-680 setup ?

Any info or pointers is well regarded...

Regards
Pand Gopal
