Re: how to print man page?

[Bryan Swann <swann nosc mil>]

Try,

To print the man page for "xterm" you can use:
 man xterm | lp
Be sure to pass any options to the lp command that you usually use.

If you have a specific file that is in man format you could use:
  nroff -man -Tlj xterm.1 | lp
The 'T' option is used to specify a device time.  I used 'lj' for an HP
laserjet.  You could use ps or ascii, depending on the format your printer
likes.

Hope this helps.
