Re: cups problem

I don't think so. As i've said the list of files is just an example. As
a matter of fact the command is normally called from a number of
scripts I've written and it works perfectly for directories containing
many more files (eg. 50 page faxes, each page 1 jpg)...

From what I've observed (I COULD be wrong) this ONLY happens when:
1) I scan files one day, my scanner assigns to each scanned page the
following names, eg:
scan0001.jpg scan0002.jpg scan0003.jpg
2) I scan files a few days later, in between I've scanned more files
(in other directories) so the next files in the directory could be;
scan0010.jpg scan0011.jpg scan0012.jpg

When I run the command (or the command runs triggered by my script) it
will only print the first 3 files.

Apart from that the command (when I run it manually) clearly states
that the job (in this case of 6 pages) has been sent to the printer....
but only 3 are printed.

I wonder if your shell limits the number of arguments it can pass..?
