Hi,

If u have used the same file without any change it may not work. Things to
be noted :

ps|raw:\  -> 'ps' is the printer name(can be anything), eg: lpr -Pps <filename>

rm=100.0.0.10  -> '100.0.0.10' is the node name either the ip of n/w
                        printer or print server
rp=raw   -> should be either 'raw' or 'text', that means for printing
            ASCII or text use 'rp=text' , for Postscript files use
            'rp=raw'


I think this details should help you out to get things done. Waiting for
your reply.

Regards,
Senthil vel
