Re: PRINTER variable not exported in /etc/profile was: Printing under Cygwin on W2K

Is there a "secret handshake" for http://... style printers? My printer is an IPP connection and lpr gives me an error message saying it cannot find http:\123.456.789.123:80\ipp. I have tried several different combinations of forward and back slashes but to no avail.

I am running Cygwin 1.5.9(0.112/4/2) on a W2K box with Service Pack 4 plus a bunch of hotfixes.
