Redirection > /dev/lp0
 

The following yields one line on the printer then the printer hangs.
Printer is an HP-520:

fdisk -l > /dev/lp0

I suspect it is the CR/LF vs just LF "thing".

Can I use redirection in this manner under Linux ??


My workaround is:

fdisk -l > disklist
kedit disklist
rm disklist

I print in KEDIT

Hello

The command you used is correct, so that can't be the problem.
Have you tried:

fdisk -l > /tmp/fdisk.txt
lpr /tmp/fdisk.txt

An other possibility:

fdisk -l | lpr

Maybe one of the above results in error messages which can help.

Thanks for the reply.

Both your methods work.

Thanks
