We will get this fixed, too!
But we need some more info:
What printer do you use? What's your printing filter setup, do you use
magicfilter? I had some problems printing text files from the command line
until I found out, that my printer can only do postscript, not pure text.
So I had to convert every text file to PS with mpage or enscript. Maybe
yours can also only do PS.
What happens when you do "cat textfile.txt > /dev/lp0" and
"cat postcriptfil.ps > /dev/lp0" ?
bye
