Hi there,
I need to send the output of a web page to a printer on a schedule (obviously I'll use a cron job for scheduling) and am wondering if I can do this through php. I know you can use the command line lpr in SSH but can I use PHP do do it?If the printer is remote, you may try using the SMB protocol. In that case, Victor Varela wrote a popular Samba client class in PHP that you may try to use: http://www.phpclasses.org/smbwebclient -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ PHP Reviews - Reviews of PHP books and other products http://www.phpclasses.org/reviews/ Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.meta-language.net/metastorage.html
