I'll bet you're using the wrong version of lpr. You need to use /usr/local/bin/lpr (from the cups-lpr port) instead of /usr/bin/lpr (from the base system). The best solution is probably to add NO_LPR=3DYES to /etc/make.conf, then replace /usr/bin/lp[qr] with symlinks to /usr/local/bin/lp[qr]. DES --=20 Dag-Erling Sm=F8rgrav - des@des.no
