It sounds like your printer, like mine, requires that you send a Page
Break after you get done printing text.  Use printtool to adjust the
settings and tell it to send "EOF after last job to eject last page". 
Should fix it right up!

[newbie] Printing and KEdit or cat file | lpr

I asked this question before, but did not receive an answer

When I print from KEdit, or if I do cat file | lpr

nothing prints right away, and there is nothing in the queue.  If I then
print something else (even a blank page) from other applications (e.g.
Netscape, Star Office, WordPerfect), whatever I had tried to print
earlier gets printed, then the application document.  What is wrong with
what I am trying to do with KEdit or lpr?

Thanks for your help.
