Using the lp print command

On Solaris SPARC, by default, the lp command does not copy a file to the print spooler. Instead, it passes a path specification to link to. When you are set to a view and issue the lp command, the path specification has no view context, so the spooler cannot see the file. To work around this behavior, do one of the following:

• Use lp -c to copy the file to the spooler and then print the file from there.
• Use a view-extended pathname when issuing the lp command. For example:

  lp /view/current-view/vobs/path-specification
