Hello all,
I am trying to print pdf files directly to a lexmark optra lxi with HPLaserjet emulation using gs. Here is the command I am using:
gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=laserjet -sAPERSIZE=letter -SOutputFile|lp -d lex invoice.pdf

This just prints the actual text of the pdf,pretty much useless. Is it possible to get the pdf to actually print or am I wasting my time?
Thanks in advance -John
