Perhaps the popen func will work. If you're using a linux box, lpr will print whatever stdin you feed it. $lines = file("file.txt"); $fp = popen( "/usr/bin/lpr", "w" ); while ($line = array_shift($lines)) fputs($fp,$line); pclose($fp); On Thu, 5 Oct 2000, peter tatischev wrote: >Hey, >i need a solution for a catering company that >would automatically print out the orders on their >kitchen printer. >They get their orders from web, and they're stored in several mySQL >tables.
