11. LPR - Remote Printing

This chapter describes how to start and use the LPR program supplied with ftpAxe.

LPR is a network printing program that allows access to printers attached to remote computer systems on your network. Of course, you will need to have access to a computer that will accept print jobs from you. The computer must support the Berkeley Line Printer protocol, and your PC name must be defined in the /etc/hosts.equiv or /etc/hosts.lpd file.

You can specify a number of copies, titles and banner pages, print one or several files residing on your PC, view print jobs in the queue, remove jobs from the queue.

You can run multiple LPR programs simultaneously in separate windows.
