Printer, Plotter, and Spooler Subsystem Programming
Pitch Pitch selection is supported for the PCL emulation by using the –p flag
for pitch and the –s flag for font name (or type face) with the qprt
command. Pitch values between 1 and 100 characters per inch (cpi) in
whole integers are supported. The condensed print flag, –K, is not
supported.

Note: To format ASCII for other font styles, use the base operating
system enscript utility or the qprt command with the –da, –s, and –p
flags to a PostScript queue. For PostScript queues, –p stands for
point size and the valid list of fonts is located in /usr/lib/ps/fontmap.
Valid point sizes are any integer from 1 to 1008.
Only a pitch of 17 is supported for the lineprinter font style.
Number of
Copies for Each
Page
The –W flag of the qprt command controls how many copies of each
page is printed. The default is 1 copy, and the maximum value is 999.
–w #
number of copies
Example: If a three–page job is submitted with –W2 on the qprt
command, then two copies of page 1 followed by two copies of page
2 followed by two copies of page 3 will occur in that order.
