    Chapter 3 the lpd connection.

  • Page 30: Introduction

    Introduction this section documents the implementation of the line printer daemon (lpd) protocol mechanism in the imagepress c7010vps series. This mechanism allows the imagepress c7010vps series to communicate with the host system in order to print files. The use of lpd implies that all files transf...

  • Page 31: Terminology

    Terminology throughout chapter 'the lpd connection', the following terminology is used: lp refers to the entire line printer architecture/system, consisting of client applications, server applications, print queues, and communication protocol. Lpd (upper case) refers to the protocol (rfc 1179) which...

  • Page 32: General Specifications

    General specifications lp architecture an lp session involves at least two programs: • an lp client program • an lp server program. Depending on the specific functional request, the user will normally use different client programs to communicate with the lpd program. In general, one single lpd progr...

    Spooling besides providing information from the lp print queue, the printerlpd also provides information about the printer’s spool queue which contains all jobs that are processed (spooling, spooled or ripping). When a job is fully ripped it will not be accessible and visible anymore via the lp inte...

  • Page 34: Using The Lp Print Service

    Using the lp print service the lpd protocol manipulates a print queue on a host, either local or remote. Each print queue is referred to by a logical name. A job in a print queue consists of one control file and one or more data files. A control file describes the print job in terms of characteristi...

    Submitting print jobs job attributes users may submit print jobs using an lp client programme such as lpr (bsd style) or lp (system v style). The user can influence the way a job is printed using specific command line options with the lpr or lp command. Available command line options can differ from...
