You can print stdout output of a program like that. eg:
myprogram | lp

You can't use pipes.
lpr relies on the file extension to determine the file type and invoke the
proper filter.
When using pipes, it assumes postscript AFAIK.
In each case creating the file doesn't hurt. LP will create a file anyway.

Something like "cat myfile.bmp|lpr". This doesn't work, it just prints garbage,
maybe "cat" is handling the file as text.
I'm asking this because I don't want to create the file, then print it, then
delete it, much better

Hi, I'm looking for a way to send images to a printer without using the
Printers unit. I can't use it because it relies on X (on Linux) and I need to
print from a CGI or command line application, that must be installed on servers
without X installed.
Does FPC have a workaround for this?

I changed it to a very similar program, but one which can be built
with a single instruction:
program driver;
uses asmio;
{$ASMMODE Intel}
procedure tes; assembler; [alias:'tes'];
asm
push ebp
mov ebp,esp
mov EAX,65
push EAX
call printc
leave
ret
end;
begin
tes;
end.
It crashes insi
