DESCRIPTION

tics are controlled by the printer driver as described in lp(7). acts on the current standard output.
Options
recognizes the following options and arguments:
Report all option settings.
Specify a character printer
where backspace characters pass through the driver unchanged. The absence of this option indicates a line printer.
The driver takes the necessary action to accommodate backspace characters.
Resets the printer back to line-printer mode.
Limit the number of columns to be printed to
cols. Characters beyond the specified limit are truncated.
Reset options to default for the device.
This action is not taken until the next open occurs on the device.
Indent indent columns before printing the first column.
Select cooked mode.
Cooked mode must be used with a cooked device special file which is identified by an lp mnemonic that is not preceded
by the character
Specify the number of
lines per page. The last new-line character of each page is changed to a form-feed.
Set the page size to infinity.
Since the last new-line of the page is never encountered, no new-line characters are changed to form-feeds.
Select a raw mode for graphics dumps.
All other options are ignored except If the option is not given, is assumed.

WARNINGS
Use of the command in conjunction with the spooler (see lp(1)) might cause undesirable side effects. The spooler model files make assump-
tions regarding the configuration and can get confused when the default values are altered. Although most options can be altered without
difficulty, special problems sometimes result from adjusting the number of lines and the number of columns per page.
