- What command(s) do I need to print a postscript file (.ps, .eps) from a
- shell script? I have no printer on my local machine, but we have a
- network-wide printer that is the default for everything else. The
- only command-line utility that can find the printer seems to be
- enscript(1), but that prints the text of the postscript source, not
- the results of processing the postscript. Stuff like pslpr(1) can't
- even find the printer, even if I use the -P option and name the printer
- explicitly.
-
- I have already RTFM. In fact, I have RTFM to death :-(, and tried it many
- different ways, so please reply only if you have done this
- successfully.
-
- Thanx,
- Michael
