lp

LP(1)							      General Commands Manual							     LP(1)

NAME

       lp, lpd - copy a file to the line printer

SYNOPSIS

       lp [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Each file argument to lp is send to the line printer to be printed.  Standard input is read and printed if there are no arguments.  Lp exe-
       cutes /usr/lib/lpd with each file as input.  Lpd puts the file in /usr/spool/lpd and starts printing the jobs on /dev/lp unless another lpd
       is  already  running.   If  lpd finds any character in the input that it doesn't know how to handle then it will print the rest of the file
       without any special treatment.  This also means that no formfeed is sent after the file has been printed to force out the page.	Lpd simply
       assumes that you know what you are doing.  (dumb, eh?)

       Note:  Don't do anything with a file until it is printed, lpd only makes a copy of a file in the spool directory when it is not world read-
       able.  If it can be read then it is printed directly.

FILES

       /usr/spool/lpd/jobXXXXX
			   Information about a job.

       /usr/spool/lpd/tmpXXXXX
			   Associated file to be printed.

       /etc/termcap	   The 'lp' entry describes the printer by the "li#" and "co#" fields.	By  default  66  lines	(li#66),  and  80  columns
			   (co#80).

SEE ALSO

       lp(4), termcap(5), termcap(7).

BUGS

       Not spooling a world readable file may not be such a smart idea.

       A formfeed should be printed and the printer reset after a job full of escape codes, but this may cost paper.
