lcg01of(8) System Manager's Manual lcg01of(8) Name lcg01of - LCG01 Color Printing System Filter Syntax /usr/lib/lpdfilters/lcg01of [-c] [-nlogin] [-hhost] [-wwidth] [-lnum] [-iindent] [accounting file] Description The filter is used to filter text data destined for the LCG01 Color Printing System. The filter handles the device dependencies of the printers and performs accounting functions. Accounting records are written to the file specified by the af field in at the time of comple- tion for each job. The filter can handle plain ASCII files, nroff files, and sixel files. The printer also supports the following graphic protocols: ReGIS, NAPLPS, and GIDIS. To print using these protocols, the xf(8) filter should be invoked using the lpr -x option. The filter translates nroff control sequences for underlining, superscripting, and subscripting into the correct LCG01 control sequences. The filter can be the specified filter in both the of and the if fields in the file. For further information, see When both fields are specified, the of filter is used only to print the banner page. It is then stopped to allow the if filter access to the printer. The if filter maintains accounting information. If the of field is the only one specified, the filter is used to print the banner page. It is then stopped and restarted. This allows the of filter to be used to maintain accounting information. If the if field is the only one specified, the banner page is sent directly to the printer. If the printer has been left in an undetermined state, the banner page may not print correctly. The best results are obtained when the filter is specified in both the of and if fields. For a more detailed discussion on filters, see the ``Line Printer Spooler Manual'' in the ULTRIX Supplementary Documents, Volume 2: Programmer. Options The filter ignores the arguments passed to it by the line printer daemon, lpd(8). The of filter is called with the following arguments: lcg01of -wwidth -llength The width and length values come from the pw and pl fields in the database. The if (or restarted of) filter is passed the following arguments: lcg01of -c -nlogin -hhost -wwidth -lnum -iindent accounting file Diagnostics The lf field (default /dev/null) in the database specifies error logging file name.

lg02of(8) System Manager's Manual lg02of(8) Name lg02of - LG02 Matrix Line Printer Syntax /usr/lib/lpdfilters/lg02of [-c] [-nlogin] [-hhost] [-wwidth] [-lnum] [-iindent] [accounting file] Description The filter is used to filter text data destined for the LG02 line printer. The filter handles the device dependencies of the printers and performs accounting functions. Accounting records are written to the file specified by the af field in at the time of completion for each job. The filter can handle plain ASCII files and files that have been preprocessed by nroff. The filter translates nroff control sequences for underlining, superscripting and subscripting into the correct LG02 control sequences. The filter can be the specified filter in both the of and the if fields in the file. For further information, see When both fields are specified the of filter is used only to print the banner page. It is then stopped to allow the if filter access to the printer. The if filter maintains accounting information. If the of field is the only one specified the filter is used to print the banner page. It is then stopped and restarted. This allows the of filter to be used to maintain accounting information. If the if field is the only one specified the banner page will be sent directly to the printer. If the printer has been left in an undeter- mined state the banner page may not print correctly. The best results will be obtained when the filter is specified in both the of and if fields. For a more detailed discussion on filters see the ``Line Printer Spooler Manual'' in the ULTRIX Supplementary Documents, Volume 2: Programmer. Options The arguments passed to the filter depend on its use. The of filter is called with the following arguments: lg02of -wwidth -llength The width and length values come from the pw and pl fields in the database. The if (or restarted of) filter is passed the following arguments: lg02of -c -nlogin -hhost -wwidth -lnum -iindent accounting file The -c flag is optional, and supplied only when control characters are to be printed, that is, when the -l option of is used to print the file. The -w and -l arguments are the same as for the of filter, however, they may have different values if the -w and/or -z options of were used to print the file. If the value of the width is greater than 80 the job will be printed in landscape mode with a slightly smaller font. The length of the page is assumed to be 66 regardless of the length specified. The -n and -h argu- ments specify the login name and host name of the job owner. These arguments are used to record accounting information. The -i option specifies the amount of indentation to be used. The last argument is the name of the accounting file specified from the af field in the database. Diagnostics Are sent to wherever specifies with the lf field.
