6.2.3.3 Manual Selection of Filters

The NIC ships with an input filter called

psfilter

and an output filter

called

entries in the /etc/print-

cap file. The following is a sample printcap entry using these filters:

<printer_name> | NIC printer:\

:lp=/dev/nic/<printer_name>:\

:if=/usr/nic/psfilter:\

:of=/usr/nic/psbanner:\

:sd=/usr/spool/<printer_name>:
