I dunno, man. What you're hearing from me is mostly convulsive horror at the tarpit that is Unix printing. I try not to have anything to do with it, other that advising people that it should be taken out and shot. I recall that Ben Woodard of the late lamented VA Linux software engineering department managed to overhaul lpr so that it sucked less -- and that the result is now independently maintained as GNUlpr: http://lpr.sourceforge.net/ You might try that. -- Cheers, There are only 10 types of people in this world -- Rick Moen those who understand binary arithmetic and those who don't.
