Hi

I compiled from source including global.conf modified as...

...

if (strlen($_printer))
    foreach $xxx ($LIST_DELIM, $_printer)
##   $xxx = "'-P", $xxx, "'";
##   printer { options $$xxx  command "lpr"  timeout $_printer_timeout }
     printer { options '%s' command 'vtprint -fq' }
   done
endif

...

But vtprint is reporting the following message

vtprint: Couldn't open %s for reading.-

What i'm doing wrong now?

Guillermo
