Hey Jen,
Just went in and studied the printter configs for my work. We are using
RH6.1 w/lpd for printing. I'm hoping that Suse uses lpd as well but I'm
not sure. Any how, in /var/spool/lpd/lp(x) edit the textonly.cfg and make
sure that there is a line that reads:
CRLFTRANS=1
This apparently correctly translates the Carraige return/Line Feeds. If
Suse doesn't use the same layout you would still be looking for the
printer config files (ie-> printer.cfg) in /var/spool/lpd/lp(x).
Let me know if this works or not and I can check out a few other options.
This was just a 5min scan.
HTH,
