There's more in depth documentation at /usr/share/doc/muttprint I use CUPS as my printing system and lpr/lp works fine. > I have two printers in /etc/printcap.cups: Epson(local) and HydraHP(network) snip > Is there a work around whereby I can force the printing of what's in the > print queue (lpq)? You'll have to ask someone more experienced with printing. Printing just works for me (postscript printers rule) What does lpq say? gee@duck:~$ lpq OPTRAT610 is ready no entries Stuff the printer name into lpr, e.g. gee@duck:~$ lpr -P OPTRAT610 testfile What happens?
