Subject: printing to cups cups-pdf

Message-ID: <dm0144$r06$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)

Hello,

I'm ultimately trying to have jobs printed from foxpro under dosemu to 
print to a file.  A postscript file would do, but I've been trying to 
generate a pdf file.

I'm using cups and I've tried setting the printer command to "lp -l" in 
the config and I specified the printer.  When I print from foxpro, a pdf 
is generated, but it is blank.  Just issuing

echo 'hello' | lpr -P printername

works.

Any ideas on how I can get file output from print jobs?

Randall
