Hi,

does anyone of you know an AppleScript command to send a character string
to a printer queue?

Regards,

Gerald

This is the unix command:

lpr DESCRIPTION
lpr submits files for printing. Files named on the command
line are sent to the named printer (or the system default
destination if no destination is specified). If no files
are listed on the command-line lpr reads the print file
from the standard input.

If you want AppleScript, this should do it

<untested script>

do shell script " lpr a"

</untested script>

Regards
