This section gives the syntax for the lp command, and lists the
required and optional information you use to submit a print job.

Identify the queue where you want to send the jobs.

Specify the names of the files to print. You must include any

Using lp with Solaris 2.6

Sun Microsystems has discontinued support for the System V
Print Protocol in Solaris 2.6. In order to use the lp utilities to print
to the DocuSP controller running Solaris 2.6, refer to the chapter,
Installation, for procedures to set up lp submission from a client
workstation.

NOTE: When using lp on the DocuSP controller for local print
submission, the –c switch must be included. The syntax required
is:

lp -d <queue name> -c -o <options> <job name>
