Re: [efax-users] Receiving faxes to multiple printers

[Ed Casas <edc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sean,

Since the fax script just sources the configuration files you
should be able to put something like:

case $DEV in
        ttyR1) PRCMD='lpr -PPrinter1' ;;
        ttyR2) PRCMD='lpr -PPrinter2' ;;
esac

in /etc/efax.rc
