Xerox 721P90350 manual

Printing using Xerox utilities and lpr utilities (DOS and UNIX)

Optional In addition to the required arguments, you can use the options arguments listed below. You may enter multiple options separated by

commas within the parentheses. Use the following syntax:

lpr -P <printer> -C”(<options> )” <filenames>

You must enter uppercase -C and -J, but the other options are not case sensitive. Use the lpr command man page for more information.

If the text that you enter after the print options (shown in angle brackets below) contains spaces, enclose the text with double quotation marks.

NOTE: The quotation marks prevent the parentheses and any spaces from passing to UNIX as separate entities. UNIX interprets spaces as the end of a command line and acts on them if they are not enclosed in quotation marks.

NOTE: To use any of the -C options described below, you must enclose the entire -C option in double quotation marks with everything except the recipient’s name in parentheses. For example, if you enter lpr -P<printer controller name> -C “Jones (drilled)”, the document is printed on drilled paper with the user id “Jones”. If you use an lpr -C option with quotes but not parentheses, whatever is specified in quotes replaces the recipient name. For example, if you enter lpr -P<printer controller name> -C “drilled” <filename> with the user id “Jones”, the recipient name is“drilled” instead of “Jones.”

The -C options are not available if you are using Wollongong Pathway Access or Sun PC-NFS.
