Good for you! Smilie

Seriously, we need a bit more information as to what you're trying to achieve. - i.e. what Linux distro you're using, whether or not the printer is already set up (i.e. you can print to it with echo "blah" | lpr or lpr somefile), etc.

If you're trying to format your file so that the output is 80 columns wide look into the fmt command (fmt -w 80 somefile.txt | lpr), etc.....

Of course, without more info, this is idle speculation....

Cheers
