Note:

To eliminate confusion, you should give the local and remote

printers the same name, except where an existing local default

name is required.

Use the local printer name as the lpr entry on the lpr command

line to direct the print.

The printer names used to invoke the different filters are as

follows:

1pb

Binary files (no filters)

ASCII files (carriage returns at line ends)

Binary file with form feed at file end

ASCII file with form feed at file end

All other printer names will be treated the same as lpb.

Note:

Some versions of lpr strip out all control characters and carriage

return

characters from a file before it is sent, making it unsuitable for

bit-imagefiles or font downloadfiles. In many cases the “-l” option

may be used on the lpr command line to prevent this happening

(worth tying even if this option is not documented).

The following is an example of sending a text file “txtfile” via lpr

with a form feed appended:

lpr -Plpaf txtfile
