Hi all, I want to print text to dot-matrix printer, as far as I know, " lpr " can do it. For example echo "I want to print 1 line only" | lpr. It will print that text to printer with form feed. I want to print that text without form feed. any ideas? thks, <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.2314.1000" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT size=2> <DIV><FONT size=2>Hi all,</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>I want to print text to dot-matrix printer, as far as I know, " lpr " can do it.

echo "foo" |lpr -Praw works for me. To print a form feed, use echo ^L |lpr -Praw (press Ctrl-V, Ctrl-L for the ^L).
