When I want to print a document using ssh from my local machine I use
cat path/to/document.pdf | ssh my_name@server.com lpr
This will print my
document.pdf
that is located in my local machine using a printer connected to server.com.
If I want to print the document.pdf
5 times I do not know how to do it. I know with lpr
I need to do lpr -#5 document.pdf
but how to combine that with cat
and ssh
?
I tried
cat path/to/document.pdf | ssh my_name@server.com lpr -#5
and
cat path/to/document.pdf -#5 | ssh my_name@server.com lpr
but none of them worked.
