Printing using LPD
For LPD printing instructions, refer to your UNIX manual. The following example is for a BSD
system:
lpr -P printer_name filename Where:
printer_name is the name of the Print Queue defined on the Unix host.
filename is the name of the file you wish to print.
Example:
lpr -P Marketing /etc/hosts
In the above example, the /etc/hosts file is sent to the printer queue Marketing. It will then be
sent to the logical printer associated with this queue.
