I am grateful for all the suggestions. The reason I would like to setup a PDF printer is so that I can use the lp command to print most of the common file formats that might come as email attachments to the PDF printer to have them all end up in the ~/PDF folder. For example: lp -d PDF-Printer image.jpg This way if there is no physical printer accessible from the Pi, one can just print to the PDF printer and print a hard copy later from the generated PDFs.

The wiki should help. > I had looked into lpadmin and thought that might be what I need but couldn't find in the man page how to add a printer. I don't have web access so am asking here rather than looking on the wiki. So basically what I'm asking is how to add a printer (this could apply to any printer, not just PDF) without needing to install a printer configuration GUI. Thanks. -- Jason
