No kind of filtering is done, so everything you 7# pass to the "lpr" command will be printed unmodified. 8# 9# Remember, for further print queues you're going to add, you have to 10# chose different spool directories (the "sd" capability below), 11# otherwise you will greatly confuse lpd. 12# 13# For some advanced printing, have a look at the "apsfilter" package. 14# It plugs into the lpd system, allowing you to print a variety of 15# different file types by converting everything to PostScript(tm) 16# format. If you don't have a PostScript(tm) printer, don't panic, 17# but do also install the "ghostscript" package. 18# 19# Do also refer to section 7 (Printing) of the handbook. A local copy 20# can be found under /usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.{html,latin1}. 21# 22# Banner pages are now suppressed by default. Remove the :sh: 23# capability to turn them back on. 24# 25lp|local line printer:\ 26 :sh:\ 27 :lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs: 28# 29# Sample remote printer.
