do you have the full URL to it? The file seems no longer to be there.

Yes, they're not so funny at all, especially since people here want to
work within a "UNIX-like" environment without having to throw away
their windows boxes. This is also a good training to get familiar with
the handling of UNIX and Linux based machines. Windows only
applications won't help too much. That's the reason behind my question
for an lpr replacement.

Best regards,

Markus
