Name

ln01pp − LN01(S) print filter

Syntax

/usr/lib/lpdfilters/ln01pp

Description

The ln01pp filter is the print filter for print function pr(.). When the −p option is specified in lpr() to print a job, the ln01pp filter is invoked. The filter sends the appropriate control sequences to the LN01(S) to set the size of the printable area on a sheet of paper. The filter then calls /bin/pr.

The ln01pp filter should be specified in the pp field of the /etc/printcap file.  For further information, see printcap(.). It is invoked when the −p option is used with the lpr() command to print a job.
