It seems to be correct. The debug switch on lpr doesn't say a whole lot: $ lpr -D tasks.txt Windows printer name = 'Dell AIO 810' isWindows9x = 0, isWindows2K_NT4 = 1 Printer name: 'Journal Note Writer', Port name: 'Journal Note Writer Port:' Printer name: 'Send To Neat', Port name: 'sdtn' Printer name: 'Microsoft XPS Document Writer', Port name: 'PORTPROMPT:' Printer name: 'Fax', Port name: 'SHRFAX:' Printer name: 'Dell PC Fax', Port name: 'Dell PC Fax' Printer name: 'Dell AIO 810', Port name: 'USB001' So, this gives me the impression that it is sending the information to the right place. Also, when I do this, the Dell popup that tells you what is being printed and where *DOES* popup to suggest that it got the print request and it is trying to print it out. The problem is that it seems to send the file "somewhere", take a second to close the port, then finish up and not report any problems. p.s. "print /p tasks.txt" seems to work from cygwin Xterm I did the "lpr" above from. Just not sure how to control the size of the output and would prefer to use the cygwin command. Any other options? -- David Masterson -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
