lpr

When specifying a printer by IP ad-

dress

d r es s [ - Po pt i on] [- ol ]
\pass name\file name

When using a host name instead of an

IP address

c:> lpr -Sprinter's host
name [-Poption] [-ol] \pass
name\file name
When printing a binary file, add
the "-ol" option (lowercase O, and
lowercase L).

name "host" to print a PostScript file
n a m e d " f i l e 1 " l o c a t e d i n t h e

rcp

First, register the printer's host name
in the hosts file.

c:> rcp [-b] \pass name\file
name [pass name\file name...]
printer's host name:[option]

Note

❒ In file names, "*" and "?" can be used

as wild cards.

❒ When printing a binary file, add

the “-b” option.

When using a printer with the host
name "host" to print a PostScript file
named "file 1" or "file 2" located in the
"C:\PRINT" directory, the command
line is as follows:

c:> rcp -b C:\PRINT\file1
C:\PRINT\file2 host:file-
type=RPS
