There's an easier way. dvi2ps has a -r option which turns off page reversal.
Here's an alias that you can use to hardcopy dvi files.
alias lpr-d 'dvi2ps -r \!*.dvi | lpr -J\!*.dvi -T\!*.dvi; lpq'
(note that I'm lazy so I set this up so that it always appends .dvi to the filename.
i.e. dvi-d file == dvi -d file.dvi (or it would if dvi -d worked on athena))
By the way, this alias has one (very minor) bug, in that the job name
when the queue is shown is 'standard output', or something like that.
Anyone know how to fix it?
