Package: lynx
Version: 2.8.2-5
Severity: normal
This may be wishlist severity, but it's still annoying as heck. :>
I have my virtual consoles set up as a 1024x768 framebuffer, giving me
a 128x48 text screen. And of course my printer's resolution is
80x66. So when I print through lpr lynx formats the page to 128
columns, then the printer filter wraps it and makes the printed output
look terrible.
Prefered solution would be to check printcap for pw#?? (may not be
possible) and fall back to specifying the line width in /etc/lynx.cfg.
Probably the option should be extended for width and
height.

The original email asked about different screen and printer
widths when doins 'p' printing.
One solution is to put this download option in the lynx.cfg
DOWNLOADER:my print:lynx -dump -width=40 %s | lpr -options:FALSE
The print function saves the already rendered text to a file.
A different width would be possible by a change in the code I guess.
