Re: [hylafax-users] Printing faxes:fax2ps or tiff2ps

[Elena Benítez López <eblopez@xxxxxx>]

We have solved A4 faxes printing with Canon 1760 and 3460 models by 
using Foomatic/pxlmono (recommended) driver for both of them and by 
printing via:

 tiff2ps -a -w 12.5 -h 11.5 file.tif|lpr -Pprinter

3460 is faster than 1760 though.

Thanks,

Elena
