Thanks ! Hi. CUPS installs a binary of lpr that prints to CUPS printers, so I do it like this: In Opera, go to "File -> Print", then the "Printer Program" tab. Printer Program: /usr/local/bin/lpr Parameter: -PYour_Printer_Name_Here You can find your printer name in /etc/printcap. This way is often much slower to start printing than with other apps, but it works. -Mark -- Internet Radio: Party107 (Trance/Electronic) - http://www.party107.com Rock 101.9 The Edge (Rock) - http://www.rock1019.net IRC: MIXXnet IRC Network - irc.mixxnet.net (Nick: MIXX941)
