Subject: LPT1 - Local Printing
Date: Thu, 28 Dec 2006 21:21:23 -0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <45945173.90608@amti.com.br> (raw)

Hi all;

I'm having a issue due printing in a LTSP terminal with DOSEMU.

I have some DOS-16 applications that print at LPT1 (and only LPT1).

I don't have at the client the lp, lpr, not even printcap.

I'm trying to redirect that right thru /dev/lp0, I already changed the 
$_printer_program to a shell script home-made, but I can't get the 
variables and data sending to redirect to device.

Like:
echo ASDF | lpr -> prints ASDF to printer in /etc/printcap

I made a program "print" that does that:
echo ASDF | print -> prints ASDF to printer /dev/lp0

How can I get the "echo ASDF" that DOSEMU sends?

Does someone can help me on that? I already tried to hack out the code 
but couldn't find the printers sessions.


Stefano
