[NTLUG:Discuss] lpd's wiggin'

queue with "lpr -s ...".

I suspect something is confused in the filter system.  Try to run the scripts in

I am printing ps files to a ps printer.  there should not be much
conversion going on...

Yes... this is redhat.  how do I queue instead of spool?  Do I have a
chance of loosing some of my print jobs?
