Net::Printer

I using the program below to send file to printer.... It's printing a blank
page and giving the error below.  Anyone have any ideas?


C:\brian\Perl>perl send_to_printer3.pl
Use of uninitialized value in sprintf at C:/Perl/site/lib/Net/Printer.pm
line 742.
Use of uninitialized value in sprintf at C:/Perl/site/lib/Net/Printer.pm

---begin

use strict;
use warnings;
use Net::Printer;

my $lineprinter = new Net::Printer (

filename    => "C:/brian/test/12345.html",
printer     => "HP4100-IS",
server      => "hp-exch",
port        => "515",
lineconvert => "YES"

);

my $result = $lineprinter->printfile();


---end

Thanks!

Net::Printer docs excerpt:

Please note that this module only talks to print servers that speak
BSD.  It will not talk to printers using SMB or SysV unless they are
set up as BSD printers.  CUPS users will need to set up B<cups-lpd> to
provide legacy access. ( See L</"Using Net::Printer with CUPS"> )
