You need to set your localization. LPRng uses the localization
information, and checks for a printable character using isalpha().
If your isalpha() is not localized, then you will not see them.
If you do not understand what this is about, then, I hate to
say this, prepare for a long and painful education in localization.
I still have the scars, a tattoo, and a VERY painful set of memories.
