Hi !
I am trying to use foomatic (http://www.linuxprinting.org) as a print
filter under FreeBSD-4.8-RELEASE.
Without any options, it works great.
Now, I want to give options to the filter script.
From the foomatic documentation, this is done by (depending on your
print spooler):
lpr -Pqueue -J'option1 option2' --> for LPD
lpr -Pqueue -o option1 -o option2 --> for GNUlpr
lpr -Pqueue -Z option1 -Z option2 --> for LPRng
Now, I use the standard lpd print spooler that comes with FreeBSD. From
the lpr man page, it says that:
-J job Job name to print on the burst page. Normally, the first file's
name is used.
So, should I use another switch, like -Z, although it is for LPRng ?
Thanks.
Antoine
