|When I just tried printing a text file to a HP Deskjet 690C on a win95 |box, and got a print out like this: | |First line starts where it is supposed to be | Second line is a couple of inches in, when it is |supposed to be left. | | |Why would it print like this? It's printing like that because Linux uses a line feed as the end of line, but your printer is expecting a line feed + carriage return as the end of line (which is what DOS/Windows does). Simple to fix - before you print your file, do a: 'unix2dos myfile'. | |> $ smbclient //server/printer |> > print myfile |> |> you can use the example script in /usr/doc/samba-doc/examples/printing |> to automate printing. | |-- |Wim Kerkhoff |[EMAIL PROTECTED] |www.canadianhomes.net/wim --- Mark Wright [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
