I'll bet it doesn't! From the lpr manpage: No formatting is done -- data is sent "raw". This means your printer has to understand *raw* text, which is what the 'ls' command generates. Many printers can do this, but U'll probably have to play with driver setup to make it work. BTW, I didn't see this thread on gmane yet, so I just started it over. I apologize for messing up threading, but I just *had* to reply. ____________________________________________________________ Click to see huge collection of designer watches. http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL2131/fc/Ioyw6iie2atUHtI1aAGPjGD6RZew9zmJ8AOq3k8bX2bmvK7k16TTx4/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
