R help - Jun 2006 - send output to printer

It has to be a simple thing, but I could not figure it out:

How do I send the text output from object x to the printer?
As a shell user I would expect a pipe to the printer... "|kprinter" or
"|lpr -Pmyprinter" somehow. And yes, I'm on Linux.

Thanks!

I think capture.output() helps to send stuff to a connection.
