Re: Printing in Color
I think that you may wish to use the -P<printer> option in lpr. Note
that you may need to edit the stylus_color... filters to make them work
properly. See /usr/doc/gs-aladdin/Devices.htm (or equivalent for gs) to
find out about the options (good luck: it looks a bit involved). It
might be worth just trying what you have, and only trying to understand
these options if that doesn't work.
