Here it is:
Mac Print:\
:pr=|/usr/bin/lpr -P printer-laser -h:
Actually I have been able to print again, but not from everything. I
can print from IE 5.0 on my Mac for example, but not Eudora 5 or a
text selection in BetterTelnet.
When I try to print however, everything spools to the printer the
exact same way. It's just from certain programs nothing comes out.
Thanks.
