Problem with printing

Hi
Just check whether all the files that you are trying to print are in the current directory from where you are issuing this command . if not then give the full path names of the files in the file r_wer
I tried the same thing by making a script file and it worked fine.
for a in `cat './files.txt'`
do
lp $a
done
files.txt is the same as your r_wer.
That's it
