I have had heaps of problems with this command, especially when trying to select a non-default printer. By default, printed output disappears down a black hole. I would have hoped that gnus would display the error from lpr, but it doesn't. I assume I have to change either lpr-command or lpr-switches. Rather then trying to reproduce all the horrible LISP errors I have encountered, could somebody please give me sample LISP code to change the active printer with the -P option to lpr? Thanks. Also, there is a bug in C-u A P. From memory, it asks what file to write the output to. However, if multiple messages have been selected, only the last one will appear (I assume that each message overwrites the last one). >>From time to time, other weird problems have occurred (eg printing the wrong message), but I doubt I would be able to reproduce this. As for that postscript error, /undefined seems to be one of the most common errors I have seen (not from gnus though). -- Brian May
