I appreciate your help with this. I was not able to get:
inotifywait -e ~/Pictures/Webcam
to return any data to me.
Sorry, that was my typo, should have been
inotifywait -m ~/Pictures/Webcam
(the '-m' is to keep it running, by default it will report all events)
lpr -P HP "$filename" bit to make sure it would work. I set the paper
size i the printer to 6"x4" photo, yet it printed out 4 tiled images for
the picure (1/4 each tile) is that what the format part of the script
was meant to correct?
The format part is just to make inotifywait report only the filename.
I'm not sure why you are getting a tiled image, might be to do with the
size of the image or with the paper size. You may need to add some
options to the lpr command (eg '-o fit-to-page' to force the image to
the page size, and/or '-o media=Custom.4x6in' to set the page size).

Thanks Glenn,
I will continue tomorrow night, Sat night I have to be ready. Fallback
position is that I become photographer for the night.
I did have a look at darktable but tethering my Eos 600D with built in
flash drained the battery rapidly. Once I get everything working I could
hook the camera up to a studio flash with a brolly and blast away, but
it's too close to the event.
Cheers
Andrew
