NAME
rlpdaemon - daemon for queuing, displaying, removing and altering remote spool requests and writing remote messages SYNOPSIS
logfile] DESCRIPTION
is a LP daemon (spool area handler) for remote spool requests. is normally invoked at boot time from the file or started by inetd(1M), when necessary. runs on a system that receives requests to be printed. transfers files to the spooling area, displays the queue, removes jobs from the queue, or alters jobs in the queue. is also used as a server process to write a message on the user's terminal, upon receiving a request from a remote system. Options Prevent from remaining after a request is processed. This is required if is started from inetd(1M). When is invoked with this option, error messages and valid requests received from the network are logged to either or logfile specified with option. Cause to log error messages and valid requests received from the network to the file This can be useful for debugging. Change the file used for writing error messages and valid requests received from the network to the file to logfile. When is started by inetd(1M), access control is provided via the file to allow or prevent a host from making requests. When is not started by inetd(1M), all requests must come from one of the machines listed in the file or When is used for access, the user name should be The following entry should exist in for remote spooling: printer 515/tcp spooler Control File Processing The subsystem expects that the control file associated with each request contain the datafile line entry (starting with a lower case let- ter) indicating the file to be printed, and an associated unlink datafile entry (U entry). The actual filename (N entry) for this datafile line entry can be above or below the datafile line entry. If multiple copies of a file has to be printed, for example copies, then the datafile line entry should be repeated times in succession. may reorder or insert the U entries in the control file such that the datafile line entry and the U entry will be in succession for each file to be printed. EXAMPLES
To start from invoke the command: To start from the following line should be included in the file WARNINGS
If the remote system is the same as the local system and was not started by inetd(1M), the local system name be included in file AUTHOR

NAME
rlp - send LP print request to a remote system SYNOPSIS
id class] job] title] [numcols]] font] num] file DESCRIPTION
transfers a spooling request to a remote system to be printed. communicates with a spooling daemon on a remote system to transfer the spooling request. Options can be set only on the original system (the system where the request originated). The file name must be last. Transfers of a remote request use only the option and the file. This command is intended to be used only by the spool system in response to the command and should not be invoked directly (see lp(1)). Options recognizes the following options and command-line arguments: The argument id is the request ID. Take the class argument as a job classification for use on the banner page. Take the job argument as the job name to print on the banner page. Use the title argument as the title used by instead of the file name (see pr(1)). is ignored unless the option is specified. Suppress the printing of the banner page. Cause the output to be indented. If the next argument is numeric, it is used as the number of blanks to be printed before each line; otherwise, 8 characters are printed. Specify a font to be mounted on font position k, where k is from through Use the num argument number as the page width for The following single-letter options are used to notify the LP spooler that the files are not standard text files. The spooling system uses the appropriate filters (if the option is supported) to print the data accordingly. These options are mutually exclusive. The files are assumed to contain data produced by cifplot. The files are assumed to contain data from tex (DVI format). Use a filter that interprets the first character of each line as a standard FORTRAN carriage control character. The files are assumed to contain standard plot data as produced by the routines. Use a filter that suppresses page breaks. The files are assumed to contain data from (device-independent Use to format the files. The files are assumed to contain data from (cat phototypesetter commands). The files are assumed to contain a raster image for devices such as the Benson Varian. WARNINGS
Some remote line printer models may not support all of these options. Options not supported are silently ignored. When is transferring a request that originated on another system, only the option and the file is used. This saves from having to set the various options multiple times. Specifying unused options does not produce an error. AUTHOR
