35 C4::Print - Koha module dealing with printing
43 The functions in this module handle sending text to a printer.
51 Queue some text for printing on the selected branch printer
58 # FIXME - It'd be nifty if this could generate pretty PostScript.
62 # FIXME - If 'queue' is undefined or empty, then presumably it should
63 # mean "use the default queue", whatever the default is. Presumably
64 # the default depends on the physical location of the machine.
65 # FIXME - Perhaps "print to file" should be a supported option. Just
66 # set the queue to "file" (or " file", if real queues aren't allowed
67 # to have spaces in them). Or perhaps if $queue eq "" and
68 # $env->{file} ne "", then that should mean "print to $env->{file}".
71 if ( $queue eq "" || $queue eq 'nulllp' ) {
73 #open( $fh, ">/tmp/kohaiss" );
77 # FIXME - This assumes that 'lpr' exists, and works as expected.
78 # This is a reasonable assumption, but only because every other
79 # printing package has a wrapper script called 'lpr'. It'd still
80 # be better to be able to customize this.
