is there a way to call system command thru stored procedures?

Hi All,

if i type 'lp test.txt' command at OS(solaris) command prompt, then basically it sends a print job to printer. so i am just wondering whether there is a way to call the command stated above thru stored procedures or any oracle-supplied package? and yet yields the same result - send the print job to printer?

thanks. your helps would be greatly appreciated.
