Using the lp options

In addition to the required information, you can use the options
listed in this section to specify the print characteristics of the
document. Some options may not be appropriate for every
printer; for example, some printers do not perform binding or
cannot accept precut tabs.

If more than one option is set using –o, the options must be
enclosed in double quotes and separated by a space. The
extended print options are case-sensitive.

When you enter the optional text after the print options, shown in
angle brackets below, the text string must not contain any
spaces. If you enter text that contains spaces, enclose the text
with the carat character (^).

NOTE: In addition to the extended options described in this
guide, the standard lp options are also available. Refer to the
man pages for lp for more information.

Account number

–o account=<text>

Enter an account number for the job.

Banner message

–o banner=<text>

Type the message, up to a maximum of 100 characters.
Any message entered will be displayed on the banner
page when the job is printed.

Covers

–o frontcover=<imaging:size:type:color:weight>

–o backcover=<imaging:size:type:color:weight>

Specify the covers, front or back or both, to be printed
with the document. The imaging parameter options are:
inside, outside, both, or none. The media size, type, color,
and weight parameters are the same as the paper stock
options defined later in this section.

For example, to specify to print side one (outside) of the
front cover on blue cardstock, enter:

lp -d ps1 -o frontcover=outside:
USLetter:Plain:blue:163 test.ps
