+=item remoteprint
+
+ &remoteprint($env, $items, $borrower);
+
+Prints the list of items in C<$items> to a printer.
+
+C<$env> is a reference-to-hash. C<$env-E<gt>{queue}> specifies the
+queue to print to; if it is empty or has the special value C<nulllp>,
+C<&remoteprint> will print to the file F</tmp/kohaiss>.
+
+C<$borrower> is a reference-to-hash giving information about a patron.
+This may be gotten from C<&getpatroninformation>. The patron's name
+will be printed in the output.
+
+C<$items> is a reference-to-list, where each element is a
+reference-to-hash describing a borrowed item. C<$items> may be gotten
+from C<¤tissues>.
