Default Printing

Hello,

I am trying to get my printer to work. I have used apsfilter and have
successfully printed a test page from that program.

The picture, a tiger's face, is not centered. I set the papersize to
letter and am in fact using letter sized paper. The printing is aprox
1/4 inch too far to the left and a like distance off top to bottom
(printing too close to the top). How can I adjust this?

Also, after exiting apsfilter, I cannot figure out how to print a file.
I am using the command line. I have read the Printing-HOWTO, The
Printing-Usage-HOWTO, "man lpr", and a few other things but am not
getting anywhere. Maybe getting the "too long at the terminal" blues.

I am running a P133 w/48meg Ram, and Tiny Linux (based on Slackware 4.0).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Shawn
