Subject: Issue with lpr in cygwin 1.5.13-1
To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com
MIME-Version: 1.0
X-IsSubscribed: yes

If I attempt to run lpr under cygwin 1.5.13-1, I get the following
error:

lpr: printer error: can't open '' for writing: The printer name is
invalid.


However, if I downgrade to cygwin 1.5.12-1, lpr works fine.

Note that the issue does not appear to be due to the cygutils version
(the package that lpr is in). I've tried both version 1.2.6-1 and
1.2.5-1 of cygutils with cygwin 1.5.13-1 and I still get the same
error message.

It is possible that the issue with cygwin 1.5.13-1 is due to
something local to my PC. However, I figured I'd report this in case
anyone else is experiencing it.

Thanks,

Frank
