35 C4::Print - Koha module dealing with printing
43 The functions in this module handle sending text to a printer.
52 @EXPORT = qw(&remoteprint &printreserve &printslip);
56 &remoteprint($env, $items, $borrower);
58 Prints the list of items in C<$items> to a printer.
60 C<$env> is a reference-to-hash. C<$env-E<gt>{queue}> specifies the
61 queue to print to; if it is empty or has the special value C<nulllp>,
62 C<&remoteprint> will print to the file F</tmp/kohaiss>.
64 C<$borrower> is a reference-to-hash giving information about a patron.
65 This may be gotten from C<&getpatroninformation>. The patron's name
66 will be printed in the output.
68 C<$items> is a reference-to-list, where each element is a
69 reference-to-hash describing a borrowed item. C<$items> may be gotten
70 from C<¤tissues>.

85 # set the queue to "file" (or " file", if real queues aren't allowed
86 # to have spaces in them). Or perhaps if $queue eq "" and
87 # $env->{file} ne "", then that should mean "print to $env->{file}".
