Learning from how you modified the global.conf file, I did the following to my
global.conf file
if (strlen($_printer))
foreach $xxx ($LIST_DELIM, $_printer)
$xxx = "'/usr/bin/passprt '";
printer { options "%s" command $$xxx timeout 40 }
done
endif
Anyhow this seems to route the printout to the local telnet printer, however for some
reason each print jobs bombs (ie. only a portion of the job gets the the local telnet
printer and the rest seems to get lost)
I then decided to change the global.conf file and change the printer line with the
following:
printer { file "filename"}
Upon exiting DOSEMU, at the shell prompt I then do: passprt "filename"
When I do this I get the entire printjob printing at the local telnet printer.
Anybody know why this would be happening. It seems somehow DOSEMU can send the
printout to a file, but something gets lost when I get DOSEMU to pipe it to the
executable script. Anybody have any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks in advance
