Has anyone tried using the -t option with lp on the 7300? No matter what I try I cannot get my system to gererate a title page for a spooled print. The man states that a lp -ttext file will generate the title page. What have I missed? Thanks Mark Hilliard seismo!rochester!kodak!gizzmo!mark

Why don't you try it? Adam Reed (mtund!adam)

This includes leaving out lots of what lp is supposed to do (including knowing the invoking user id). The title is actually only left out of the lp interface script, which is easy to fix. The rest requires rebuilding the real lp from a 5.0 or 5.2 source. Dave Wood
