You can set up printing options from Pine to print to your favorite printer. At the main menu, select S for Set-up then P for Printers.
You should select: Personally-selected print command
Use A to add a specific printer to the list, and then enter its name (such as 744) and print command (such as lpr -P744).
To print from Acrobat Reader, click on the printer icon, select Print from the Edit menu, or type Control-P in the main window. Either of these actions will pop up a print dialog window.
On Solaris systems, there has been some confusion on what to do to send the output to a specific printer. When you pop up the print dialog, the Print Command field initially contains the command /usr/bin/lp -c. To send the output to a specific printer, e.g., 744, you can either add another argument -d 744 to the command:
/usr/bin/lp -c -d 744
or you can replace the entire command with:
lpr -P744
To print from xdvi, either type Control-P in the main window, or click on the Print button on the right. This will bring up a print dialog window to print the file (or certain pages from it).
