I have a problem with dvips(k) 5.86 of tetex-1.0.7-57 under linux
Redhat 8.

Everything is OK if I type..
  dvips file.dvi -o
  lpr file.ps

However, if I type the (more normal) command for this..
  dvips file.dvi
I get the error message..
  'TeX output 2003..........' -> |lpr
  dvips: ! couldn't open output pipe

Running a trace on this, gives the last executable command as..
  stat64 |lpr
and, as I understand it, stat64 is for checking the status of a file
not a pipe(?)

Any ideas?
