<description lang="en" title="A full-featured implementation of unix lpr for MSYS" > |
| 11 |
<paragraph>lpr-enhanced is an implementation of the unix lpr system |
| 12 |
for MSYS, and unlike lpr-basic (msys-cygutils) supports many of |
| 13 |
the advanced capabilities of a true Unix implementation. These |
| 14 |
features include format-dependent filters to pre-process data |
| 15 |
before spooling to the printer. The filters may includes nroff, |
| 16 |
ditroff, or TeX pre-processors, among others. It supports |
| 17 |
/etc/printcap-style configuration, and honors both BSD options |
| 18 |
(when invoked as 'lpr') and SysV options (when invoked as 'lp'). |
| 19 |
A sample /etc/printcap file is in /var/spool/lp/config/example, |
| 20 |
but it MUST be copied to /var/spool/lp/config/.active or to |
| 21 |
/etc/printcap and customized for your environment -- just like |
| 22 |
on unix. |
| 23 |
</paragraph> |
| 24 |
<paragraph>The lpr-basic executable from the msys-cygutils package |
| 25 |
(see below) is installed, by default, as both /bin/lpr.exe and |
| 26 |
/bin/lpr-basic.exe. To use lpr-enhanced, you should manually |
| 27 |
remove /bin/lpr.exe, and manually copy /bin/lpr-enhanced to |
| 28 |
/bin/lpr (and/or /bin/lp). You may need to repeat this step each |
| 29 |
time msys-cygutils is (re)installed or updated. |
| 30 |
</paragraph> |
| 31 |
<paragraph>A note about lpr-basic: lpr-basic spools a file to the |
| 32 |
specified printer device. MSYS provides two separate |
| 33 |
implementations: lpr-basic.exe and lpr-enhanced. lpr-basic.exe is |
| 34 |
suitable for most simple printing needs; it can send "raw" data |
| 35 |
to any installed Windows printer. This is most useful for raw |
| 36 |
text, for sending plain PostScript files to PostScript-compatible |
| 37 |
printers, and for re-sending .prn files generated using Windows' |
| 38 |
own print-to-file capabilities to the specific printer for which |
| 39 |
the .prn file was generated. lpr-enhanced is more capable, more |
| 40 |
unix-like, and more difficult to configure. Use lpr-enhanced if |
| 41 |
you need the additional flexibility it provides, or are more |
| 42 |
comfortable with traditional unix lpr and/or lp semantics. |
