Hi

In the printer section of global.conf it have something 
like that :

          
if (strlen($_printer))
    foreach $xxx ($LIST_DELIM, $_printer)
        $xxx = "'/usr/bin/webps ",$REMOTE_HOST,"'";
        printer { options "< %s"  command $$xxx  timeout 40 }
      done
endif

My global.conf file is included. Don't remember if I did any other
changes 
for REMOTE_HOST. 

I have not used it for ages.
It should be the correct one, because the first version of java app 
did a iso to unicode conversion and in my case, greek, that was
disastrous.

Note do note run the thing on a site connect it the internet.
It opens a TCP port and prints anything it gets at lpt1: a good way get
by java
printing problem, and print like a true dos app ;-)
