Re: [ic] Redirecting to paper printouts.



Good ideas all...  the only problem is my customer doesn't want that...  They want to
enter it in and have it print them out....

Handling printing like this in linux is really easy..  And not a problem at all.  I do
that all the time with other applications.  It's the CC info on the printout that has
me stumped.

Sometimes the customer just wants it the way they want it and if I can't figure out
how to do it..  Well, there goes a colocated server, an in store server, a T-1, and
alot of revenue....
