I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but this horse is not quite dead
yet.
I need to print a php script from a web site using CRON. I'm thinking
something like this should work but I don't know enough about it to say
that
it would. I know that I can run a php script using CRON as such:
lynx --dump http://yoursite.com/cronjob.php
>/dev/null
Can I not output this data to a printer?

If you have a printer attached to the server from where the cron is
running you might try
lynx --dump http://yoursite.com/cronjob.php >lpt1
or something similar. Not tested.
