Like Xiangjiang, I am also stumped on how to configure the Cygwin 'lpr' so that it can be used by enscript. I searched the archives but didn't succeed in finding anything that seemed to help.
Here are the messages I get: lpr: can't open 'prn' for writing lpr: The printer name is invalid. If it helps any, the printer I want to use is on the network but associated with lpt1 through an NT login script. It is able to print either PCL or PS. TIA.... "Gerrit P.
