lj250of(8) System Manager's Manual lj250of(8) Name lj250of - LJ250 Companion Color Printer Filter Syntax /usr/lib/lpdfilters/lj250of [-c] [-nlogin] [-hhost] [-wwidth] [-lnum] [-iindent] [accounting file] Description The filter is used to filter text data destined for the LJ250 Companion Color 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 comple- tion for each job. The filter can handle plain ASCII files, nroff files, and sixel files. If the printer is in HP HCL mode, the filter should be invoked using the lpr -x option. The filter translates nroff control sequences for underlining, superscripting, and subscripting into the correct LJ250 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: lj250of -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: lj250of -c -nlogin -hhost -wwidth -lnum -iindent accounting file Diagnostics The lf field (default /dev/null) in the database specifies error logging file name.

ln01of(8) System Manager's Manual ln01of(8) Name ln01of - LN01(S) laser printer filter Syntax /usr/lib/lpdfilters/ln01of [-c] [-nlogin] [-hhost] [-wwidth] [-lnum] [-iindent] [accounting file] Description The filter is used to filter text data destined for the LN01 and LN01S laser printers. 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 and files that have been preprocessed by nroff. Since nroff only deals with monospaced characters this limits the number of fonts that will work effectively. The fonts and font selection files are in The ln01of filter translates nroff control sequences for underlining into the correct LN01(S) control sequences, but cannot handle superscripting and subscripting. It will pass through any escape or control sequences. The filter can be the specified filter in both the of and the if fields in the file, 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: ln01of -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: ln01of -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. The -n and -h arguments 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 argu- ment is the name of the accounting file specified from the af field in the database. Diagnostics The lf field (default /dev/null) in the database specifies error logging file name.
