NT to HPDPS Print Commands
The following are the two command line interfaces on an NT system to
the HPDPS print environment:
• lpr command. Use this command on NT to send print jobs to HPDPS.
Syntax:
lpr -S server-host -P printer-name [ -C class-name ] \
[ -J
job-name ] [ -o option ] file-name
Where:
-S server-host
is the name or IP address of the
server host running HPDPS
-P printer-name
is the name of the HPDPS printer
-C class-name
specifies the class name to be
printed on the banner page
-J job-name
specifies the job name to be
printed on the banner page
-o option
indicates type of file based on the
RFC1179 standard; the default is
a text file. (This option is not
needed when printing text or .ps
files.)
For example, if you want to print a binary data file, file.raw,
without filtering the control characters, to an HPDPS logical printer
LogPrt1 which resides on host host1.myco.com, use:
lpr -S host1.myco.com -P LogPrt1 -o l file.raw
