Hi!
That certainly requires FreeMiNT and depends on your setup of your
"lpr" program.
If you just want to send some ASCII character to the parallel port, it
might be better to use the "PRN:" pseudo-file with Fopen() instead. See
https://freemint.github.io/tos.hyp/en/gemdos_file.html#Fopen for details.
