See the help for postscript ... especially the 'Printing' section.

Hi!
In Windows the "win.print" function allows plotting directly to a
printer (or copying an open device to the printer). This is very
convenient to quickly print a plot once it looks good.
Is there an equivalent function under Linux? For example through CUPS,
IPP, LPD or other ?
Obviously with a printer on the parallel port one could write
postscript("/dev/lp0") but what about network printers?
Currently what I do is printing the open device to a postscript() file,
open this file in a postscript viewer and print it from there. But I'm
lazy and a win.print-like shortcut would be welcome.
Thanks,
Xavier
