DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  la380cbof  filter is used to filter text data for the
       LA380-CB printer. The filter handles the device  dependencies
  of the printer and performs accounting functions. At
       print job completion times, accounting records are written
       to the file specified by the af field in the /etc/printcap
       file.

       The la380cbof filter can handle plain text files and files
       that have been preprocessed by nroff.  Either kind of file
       can contain non-ASCII  characters.  The  la380cbof  filter
       translates nroff control sequences for underlining, superscripting,
  and  subscripting  into  the  proper   control
       sequences for the LA380-CB printer.

       The  la380cbof  filter can be the specified filter in both
       the of and the if fields in the  /etc/printcap  file.  For
       more information about these fields, see printcap(4).

       The LA380-CB printer can be configured to use the software
       on-demand loading (SoftODL) mechanism to  print  the  user
       defined characters (UDCs). Refer to i18n_printing(5) for a
       more detailed description SoftODL.

       To  enable  SoftODL  printing,  set  the   ys   field   in
       /etc/printcap  to  be  256.   You may also set the default
       SoftODL database, style and size by specifying  the  odldb
       and  odlstyle  options  in the ya field.  If you specify a
       value for the yt field, specify fifo.  See printcap(4) for
       more   information   about  these  fields  and  associated
       options.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The lpr command supports a number of options  and  associated
  arguments  to enable localization features supported
       by various printers. The following can be  used  with  the

ERRORS    [Toc]    [Back]
