The “Ppd_file” field contains information about the full path (or a path relative
to $VV_HOME) of your PPD file.
Specifying PPD File Options
To tell PShop what features to activate in the printer, you need to specify PPD
keyword/option pairs on the command line. The correct command line syntax is:
-ps=“keyword[=option][:keyword2[=option2]]...”
For example, using lp on SVR4 systems you might type:
lp -d <printer> -o “-ps=\*PageSize=A4:\*ManualFeed=True”
<file>
to tell the printer to use the “A4” option for paper size, and to use manual feed.
All keywords begin with *, and need to be escaped by a backslash (\) in most
shells.
Note: To use the “ps” option within an ID file you do not need to use the ’-’ before
the “ps” and do not need to escape the ’*’ character. Used in an ID file the
example above would read:
VVP_Opts: ps=*PageSize=A4:*ManualFeed=True
