/usr/doc/samba/examples/printing/smbprint > anyone have any suggestions? What I did here at home was set up two printers: + one pretty much like the above file (only I got rid of all the variables and hardcoded everything), + the other I turned on "translate" and replaced the "cat" on second last line with: "fold -s ; echo -n ^L". The idea is that text jobs go to the second one, and are line-broken and ready for the printer to handle; it's called "lp" so that's what happens when you hit "p" in mutt/tin/whatever. The first one is only used when I've already stuck the thing through ghostscript. (Note: the ^L is the Control-L character.) Then again, I don't have magicfilter (I don't think). There's probably a better way to do things.
