I have a line to enable all disabled printers now in my crontab every 5 mins: for i in `lpstat -p|grep 'disabled'|cut -f2 -d' '`; do /usr/bin/enable $i; done Maybe there is a nicer way of doing this. My goal was acually preventing the printer to disable at all, but this works, thanks. -- Ariën Huisken _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
