I'm not sure how much the answer below helped. Bey default, dvips is configured to send the resulting PS file directly to the printer using the command lpr. If you want a Postscript file, use 'dvips -o file.ps file.dvi'. If you always want this behaviour, you can run texconfig as root and change the default dvips output.

Hi,Hi, dear:
I am a fresh in tex, I had a problem with my dvips, when I try to run dvips it gave me this:
This is dvips(k) 5.86 Copyright 1999 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)
' TeX output 2002.10.04:1658' -> |lpr
<texc.pro>sh: lpr: not found
<special.pro>.
Means: can't find printer. You're attempting to print or save to file? Cheers mhCan you tell me what is wrong? Thanks. Regards, Shutian
