Usually apsfilter (assuming you use that. I use Slackware and am not sure what kind of printing system you use. If you use BSD printing tools, then you might be ok) also defines a raw printer device or an ascii printer device called RAW or ASCII (please check your /etc/printcap file. You can then use the -P option with lpr to print a text file lpr -PASCII <filename> or lpr -PRAW <filename> A more complete setup would mean you would need to run the SETUP file that comes with apsfilter and then choosing the printer from the list presented. -Naren On Tue, 12 Feb 2002, Doraiswamy Murugavelu wrote: > sir, > I have read ur mail.Thank u for replying. > The main problem is the printer with Red Hat Linux 7.When given to print, the text >file is defaultly converted into ps format, even though it is a simple text file, and >the printer prints in post script format. > > you have suggested to disable ps, please guide me how to disable it? > > Our printer is a dot matrix printer with 9 pin heads and make Epson LX-800. > - velu > > _____________________________________________________________ > Get your spam-free, Linux email now --> http://www.LinuxWaves.com > Join Linux discussions --> http://Community.LinuxWaves.com > _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
