It probably helps to know what Mac's printing interface is called. Net::CUPS sounds promising: `use Net::CUPS::Destination; my $printer = $cups->getDestination( "lj4200dn" ); my $jobid = $printer->printFile( $filename, $title );` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Yes, I may have to go with one of these. Unfortunately, neither can send a file as output to a printer -- only text or simple drawn shapes. Why should it be so difficult to specify a file? Note that even with Win32::Printer under Windows we must use Win32::Printer::Direct to name a file. Continued thanks for continued suggestions....	[reply]
