Neo,

Thanks for you reply. I have looked at you links, but it seems more on how to set up the printers. I was looking for a way to print with out changing the printers configuration. I form an rpm called enscript which able me to cahange the print lay out. I think this would work on any type of printers. Here is the command after install of enscript, in case any one have the same question.


enscript -r -fcourier8 -l -P{print name} %s
