The rhpux Model

The rhpux model is used for transferring print requests to a remote HPUX host. The remote host must run the HPUX LP spool system.

This model supports the following options:

DData Formatting:

rPrint data should be sent unretouched to the remote host. If not given, a linefeed

raw

character will be added to each FMP record sent to the remote host, converting the

 

file to UNIX text format as it is transferred. If this option is given then the line

 

feed characters are not added between records; the records must already have the

 

necessary carriage control embedded in the text. This option has no effect on type

 

1 files, which contain no record structure (see below).

 

This option is preserved in the request as sent to the remote host.

Type 1 files are always sent to the remote host as if raw mode were in effect, that is, linefeed characters are not added to delimit line boundaries. The first block, containing the valid byte count for the following data in the first 12 characters, is dropped during transmission (it will be recreated on the remote side if the remote host is an HP 1000).

The rbsd Model

The rbsd model is used for transferring print requests to a remote BSD UNIX host. The remote host must run the BSD spooler (lpr, lpd, and so on).

The options accepted by the rbsd model fall into three categories:

DThose that are consumed by the rbsd model for its own use. These affect the format of the request sent to the remote host; the options are not passed to the remote host.

DThose that the rbsd model interprets but leaves intact in the request sent to the remote host.

DThose that the rbsd model ignores but passes on to the remote host. These options are for interpretation by the destination printer interface. All options not listed below will be passed on to the remote host without interpretation.

This model supports the following options:

DData Formatting:

rPrint data should be sent unretouched to the remote host. If not given, a linefeed

raw

character will be added to each FMP record sent to the remote host, converting the

 

file to UNIX text format as it is transferred. If this option is given then the line

 

feed characters are not added between records; the records must already have the

 

necessary carriage control embedded in the text. This option has no effect on type

 

1 files, which contain no record structure (see below).

 

This option is preserved in the request as sent to the remote host.
