Are you using the cygwin version of Emacs or the XP version with
Cygwin also installed?
(I'm not even sure that matters come to think of it... :)

I haven't found a way for Windows NT 4 (yes, still using it at work),
but I htmlize the region I want to print, and then print it (in colour),
from my browser.
HTH (but I guess not ;-))

hi,
i'm using
GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.0.2195) of 2003-03-28 on buffy
and just customized the variable printer-name.
what does C-h v printer-name RET say ?

printer-name was empty, print command was lpr.
I tried different combos, setting the printer name to the URL of the
printer, print command to "", "print", etc, but none work.
It must be different using the NT version of emacs, versus the Cygwin
version of emacs.
Oh well, I'll see what I can figure out...

I haven't seen any references to this anywhere I've looked (but
perhaps I've got my blinders on).
Has anyone seen any docs about using Emacs under Cygwin to print to a
laser printer connected to a computer running Windows XP?
I can print to it okay from my XP utils, of course, but I would like
to set it up to print from emacs.
