[comp.unix.wizards] remote printing through lp

rick@comspec.UUCP (Rick McCalla) (02/26/90)

I am currently running a Xenix 386 box that does not have a printer attached
to it.  When I need to print something I cat it into a script which will in
turn save it as a file and then email it to another Xenix 386 box next to it
which will print it out on the printer attached to it.

I am trying to get the normal print spooler 'lp' to work in a similiar way
and cat any input out to this script.

Does anyone have an ideas of how to go about this?
