I can do either:
nc 192.168.1.100 9100 < /tmp/print.pdf
or nc 192.168.1.100 9100 < /tmp/print.ps
right now without any problems.
If you looked at the
<http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting>
page, and you apparently did, then you will have noticed the "Making
Printing "Just Work"" concept that I suggested several months ago, only
to be met by the usual naysayers claiming it would never happen or be
feasible. Obviously, these are the same individuals who claimed that
the "bumblebee" could not fly.
If you have not all ready checked out
<http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/pdf_as_standard_print_job_format>,
you might want to give it a quick once over. It is very informative.
