Greetings all! I've been assigned the most henious task of creating a paper trail of incoming faxes for our NeXT's. What I'm looking for is a way to scan the spool area where the faxes are kept, print them out to the local laser, and also copy them to an archive area (nothing like redundant redundancy, is there) Perusing the spool area and copying them off somewhere is no real problem. The difficulty I'm having is printing the images off in a non-interactive manner. What I'm asking might turn out to be extremely trivial, but I'm coming up blank as to how to print these things out. Can FaxReader be used in a command-line environment? Will I have to convert the fax images to some other format for printing? Will I be beating my head against a wall for doing this? (probably) BTW - we're running release 2.0, if it makes any difference. Thanks much for any and all assistance. brian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Has anyone seen my old friend brain? ..!uunet!mimsy!cvl!brian University of Merryland, Center for Automation Research brian@cvl.umd.edu On the count of three, everyone digress.
