TCP/IP Host Configuration (UNIX) Descriptions of printcap parameters Parameter lp rm rp mx lf sd Description Name of the device to open; this parameter must be left empty or set to /dev/null. Remote machine name. This is the name by which the workstation identifies the printer; it must match the name in the /etc/hosts file. Remote printer queue name. This is the queue name that the printer recognizes. It must be one of the following: s PS for PostScript s PCL for Printer Control Language s AUTO for Automatic Language Selection (the printer automatically senses the language of the print job and processes it accordingly) If you specify any other remote printer queue name, the printer defaults to AUTO. Your printer model may not support all languages listed here. See your printer's user documentation for information on the supported languages. With some printers, PCL must be authorized with an authorization code before it can be used. If you use PCL for the remote printer queue name, make sure that PCL has been authorized in the printer. See your printer's user documentation for more information on authorization codes and PCL. Maximum file size. Set this parameter to 0 for unlimited file size; this allows the print command to handle large PostScript or image files. Name of the log file where print command error messages are collected. Some systems have a log file for each print queue. Refer to your workstation's documentation for more information. Spool directory on your host. Make a separate spool directory for each queue.
