I am running 3.3.1 and using lpr rather than lp, hence the problem. man -t sends to lp; I want to be able to send to lpr. Anyone know how to do this? According to the man page, *.z files are unpacked using pcat and then sent to the named printer. Presumably there is more processing than that going on. If I knew exactly what man does, I could write a small script to do the job. Thanks in advance. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NAME: James S.
