Description

device

This specifies the printer device for a group of
statements, and must be the first line in each
group of statements describing a device. All
statements that follow this statement and
come before the next device statement (or the
end of the file) will apply to the named device.
Example: device=tpr0a

auxon

This specifies the control sequence that must
be sent to the terminal to enable transparent
printing. This can be a one-to-four character
sequence of ASCII characters or mnemonics,
or both, in paranthesis.

You can enter the characters as:

An actual ASCII character

A backslash and a hexadecimal value, for
example, \28 is the same as (.

A mnemonic character. (See page 30).

Characters or mnemonics must be separated
by spaces.

auxoff

This is similar to auxon, and specifies the
control sequence that must be sent to the
terminal to disable transparent printing.

printcps

This specifies (in decimal) the printer speed in
characters per second. The driver meters out
80-percent of this for actual use.

option

This specifies any post-processing that is to be
performed on data output to the printer.
There are three options:

onclr outputs a newline character as nl,cr
(newline, carraige return)

ocrnl outputs carriage return as a newline

none produces normal output

See your printer documentation for more
information about post-processing.
