Command to print to terminal emulator's default printer
 

Is there any command to print the file to terminal emulator's default printer?

I tried "cat test.txt > /dev/tty", but it just show the content of test.txt on the screen instead of printing to the default printer.

Pls help. Thanks.

Hi,

And welcome to LQ!

Commonly:
lpr test.txt



Cheers,

I know this command can print to the printer setup in Linux.
But, this command will print the file to the default printer of terminal emulator in client side?
