in thread PRINT AN IMAGE TO LPT1

Now I know that's not true at all. lpd handles any printer considering that a driver is available for it. I know this because I have used several OLD printers which I know never supported PS. lpd interacts with the drivers and does nothing else except to block on printer requests which then interacts with the driver appropriately.

    OK, I should definately do my research before mouthing off. A quick look at the Linux Printer Howto will answer all the questions crazyinsomniac had and possibly a lot more. If he isn't using Linux then some well researched API calls will probably do the trick.
