Reference on queues
In the procedure below you will set up a print queue for each printer
or printer personality (PCL or PostScript) used on each system. Also,
different queues are required for formatted and unformatted files. You
can use the queue names listed in the following table.
raw
no processing
text
carriage return added
auto
automatic
binps
binary Postscript
defined by user; optionally including
commend strings before and after the print
data
Meaning of the queue names:
The line printer daemon treats data in an
text
queue as unformatted
or ASCII text, and adds a carriage return to each line before sending it
to the printer. (Note that the actual observed behavior is that a PCL
line termination command (value of 2) is issued at the beginning of
the job.)
