Thanks, Andrew, you have been a great help.  I always use ports and more even port[install|upgrade]. Yesterday, I pkg_delete[d] gimp-print and apsfilter and rebuilt them.  I even downloaded the latest gimp-print (5.something) and was going to build it but it prints so well from gimp I decided it probably wasn't worth it and I could have problems with some paths.

I must be doing something wrong using the apsfilter SETUP because after recompiling the above and then ghostscript to be sure that it wasn't the problem, I got the same printer options in in the gimp-print (ijs driver; version 4.2.1 and later) as before.  That makes me think that I have done something wrong with the compiling of ghostscript or I don't understand apsfilter (which is a pretty much a given ;) because it works with gimp and not with apsfilter.

Thanks again for your patience.  I think I may just have to go buy an older printer that is idiot proof for the time being :)

Have a great weekend,
