Enscript does not support UTF-8 formatted text files, so it's not usable in this case. One solution, "is to use paps, instead of Enscript, for converting UTF-8 encoded text to PostScript." http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/pst/enscript.html Another (which I prefer) solution is to send to printer like this (with "n" being the 8859 extension number): $ iconv -f UTF-8 -t ISO-8859-n file-UTF8.txt | enscript --encoding=8859n | lpr -P<printer> Thanks to Martin Paredes for this suggestion. Perhaps this information or the appropriate enscript conversion code for psif could be included in the Handbook (https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/printing-lpd.html 10.5.3.4 / 10.5.3.5)?
