printd now runs printlp
(remember printlp is the program that copies the file to /dev/lp)
if ($pid = fork()) { # parent wait; handle_printlp_result($? >> 8) if $? != 0; } elsif (defined $pid) { # child open STDIN, "< &=FILE" or exit 8; close FILE; close STDOUT; print STDERR "exec-ing $CONF{printlp}, $CONF{printer}\n" if $CONF{debug_printd}; exec $CONF{printlp}, $CONF{printer}; exit 9; } else { # fork error log_error("Couldn't fork for $CONF{printlp}: $!"); }
When the wait returns, printlp has finished printing the file
So printd removes it
until (unlink $head) { log_error("Couldn't unlink spool file $head: $!!!"); sleep 10; } unlink $CONF{curfile}; } }
