papstatus

PAP(1)							      General Commands Manual							    PAP(1)

NAME

       pap, papstatus - client interface to remote printers using Printer Access Protocol

SYNOPSIS

       pap [ -c ] [ -e ] [ -p nbpname ] [ -s statusfile ] [ files ]

       papstatus [ -p nbpname ]

DESCRIPTION

       pap  is	used  to  connect and send files to an AppleTalk connected printer using the Apple Printer Access Protocol (PAP).  When pap starts
       execution, it tries to open a session with the printer using PAP, and then downloads the files to the printer.

       If no files are given on the command line, pap begins reading from standard input.

       If no printer is specified on the command line, pap looks for a file called .paprc in the current working directory and reads it to  obtain
       the  nbpname  of a printer.  Blank lines and lines that begin with a `#' are ignored.  type and zone default to LaserWriter and the zone of
       the local host, respectively.

       Note that pap is designed to be useful as a communication filter for sending lpd(8) spooled print jobs  to  AppleTalk  connected  printers.
       See psf(8) for hints on how to use it this way.

OPTIONS

       -c     Take cuts.  Normally pap tells the printer how long it has been waiting.	When -c is specified, pap claims to have been waiting for-
	      ever.

       -e     Send any message from the printer to stderr instead of stdout.  psf(8) invokes pap with this option.

       -p nbpname
	      Connect to the printer named nbpname and do not consult the .paprc file to find a printer name.  See nbp_name(3) for the	syntax	of
	      nbpname.

       -s statusfile
	      Update  the file called statusfile to contain the most recent status message from the printer.  pap gets the status from the printer
	      when it is waiting for the printer to process input.  The statusfile will contain a single line terminated with a newline.  This	is
	      useful when pap is invoked by psf(8) within lpd's spool directory.

FILES

       .paprc		   file that contains printer name

SEE ALSO

       nbp_name(3), lpd(8), psf(8).
