Printer Local question

[Scott Walker]

>From my pc connected to the unix server, I set passthrough printing on
with PFPT=on and set the printer type with PFPRTC=rschp3

I print a quote and it comes down the line to my pc fine.

I turn off PFPT and PFPRTC and now I try to get passthrough printing of
a quote from within processing...

I use the "printer local" command in processing and when I try to print
the quote, I get:

	Warning.  Can't find printer 'local'
	Reverting to defaults

I add:

 printer type "rschp3" in processing and get the same warning message.


Why is it looking for a printer named "local".  Is not "printer local"
just a processing command to turn on Pass Through printing?

I guess I just don't understand how this is supposed to work.  Any help
appreciated.
