I can still print the cups test page and anything form gimp but nothing through the cups configuration nor can I configure the C63 with apsfilter because it isn't in gs although ijs is compiled in and there must be a way to use the gimp-print driver through gs or update apsfilter to use the new gimp-print drivers but I haven't found either.

I'm interested in this also. I used Apsfilter to set up an Epson C62 
that works fine except for printing email - it prints the ps code. I 
print web pages, .pdf files and .txt files fine. I haven't tested 
anything else, I mainly need the ability to print emails more than 
anything else. I have the same problem with a Lexmark E312 LazerJet. I 
haven't tried Cups, don't know the first thing about it.
