CUPS - no german Umlaut characters

2009-02-09 Thread Ewald Jenisch
Hi,

After successfully setting up CUPS I found out a problem wrt printing
german Umlaut characters: Whenever I try to print a file with umlaut
characters the file is only printed up to not not including the first
umlaut characters. This happens for example when I take a text file
with umlaut characters and try to print it via lpr.

On the other hand, when I've got a web-page containing umlaut
characters under Firefox3 and print that page I get the complete page
- including umlaut characters.

Any ideas how I can get my umlauts to print via lpr?

Thanks much in advance for your help,
-ewald

Try some sort of filter like print/enscript:
# enscript your_file
should get your Umlaut's.

Greetings,

Thanks much for the hint! I installed a2ps-a4 - workes nicely - and
