Thanks. > > I haven't tried this. Check out the release notes for lpr (in particular, search for "fax" in NextAdmin with DL). The 3.0 lpr allows an argument for -DYYYYMMDDhhmm for deferred printing. Apparently, all fax jobs go through lpr. Watch the spool directories (like /usr/spool/NeXT/Local_Fax) when you send a fax. I imagine that command-line faxing will just require modifying the header on your .ps file to include entries like: %%NXFaxVersion: 300 %%NXFaxNumber: xxx-xxxx %%NXFaxTo: My Friend %%NXFaxNotify: YES %%NXFaxHires: YES %%NXFaxTrim: YES I haven't tried this. ----------------------------------------------------- Robert Lutwak robert@amo.mit.edu Atomic Resonance and Spectroscopy Laboratory MIT
