[cups.general] Printing text files to a postscript only printer.

[mrl]

Hi - Thanks, I'm aware of that filter, but the documentation only 
mentions that filter, in relation to non-postscript printers.  Foomatic 
may use it, but I don't see any documentation that indicates it can be 
used somehow non-foomatic postscript printer configuration, or am I 
wrong? -  Mark
