Isn't switching on the local printer just a matter of sending the proper VT100-standard escape sequence? Of course, you have to be running a terminal which supports this. I know xterm does, but weird features like this aren't well supported. The sequence is <ESC>[5i begins printing all received text to the local printer, and <ESC>[4i stops. So echo '\e[5i'; cat file; echo '\e[4i' might substitute, assuming of course that local printing works with your terminal. - J<
