I would like to know what is required to make my printing system streamlined. I
have a bj10ex printer, and I would like it to emulate a Postscript printer all
the time, so that I do not have to muck around with command-line things just to
print postscript files. I would like (for example) to simply be able to print
postscript things from inside netscape and Xlatex and have them magically come
out on my printer without me even lifting a finger (apart from telling the
program to print). I know that there has to be an intrepreter (like GS) and I
have to modify my printcap file, but I could not get anything to work. I have
looked at the FAQ on this but it did not make much sense....

Ideas???

Thanks in advance

Andrew
