Input filter., I take it you're referring to smbprint. Forgive me, but I really know very little about printing as it is, and would appreciate guidance here. I've ready through smbprint, and it doesn't mention print-control chars that are included anywhere.., so are the carraige-return and line-feed control chars to be included by myself before copying smbprint to the location referenced here: "`dirname $0`/smbclient"? Thanks again for the reply. Hope to hear from you again soon.
