[comp.unix.i386] How to drive a postscript printer in SysV 3.2

I got several replies to my request. None of them were the least bit
helpful "you're sending it a text file". "Your system is messed up."
"Blah blah blah."

So, after digging through the manuals, here's what you do:

Make a file, call it anything, with the following contents:

#!/bin/sh

shift; shift; shift; shift; shift;

cat $*


Then:

/usr/lib/lpadmin -pprintername -ifilename -v/dev/devicename
enable printername
/usr/lib/accept printername
