DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  ln03jaof  filter  is used to filter text data for the
       LN03S-JA 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 ln03jaof filter can handle plain text files and  files
       that have been preprocessed by nroff.  Either kind of file
       can contain non-ASCII characters.  The  filter  translates
       nroff  control  sequences for underlining, superscripting,
       and subscripting into the proper control sequences for the
       LN03S-JA printer.

       The  ln03jaof  filter  can be the specified filter in both
       the of and the if fields in the /etc/printcap file. For  a
       description of these fields, see printcap(4).

       The LN03S-JA printer can be configured to use the software
       on-demand  loading  (SoftODL)  mechanism  to  print  userdefined
  characters  (UDCs).  See  i18n_printing(5)  for a
       description of SoftODL.

       To  enable  SoftODL  printing,  set  the   ys   field   in
       /etc/printcap  to 256.  You can also set the default SoftODL
 database, style, and size by using the odldb and  odlstyle
 options of the ya field.  If you specify a value for
       the yt field, use fifo.  For  more  information  on  these
       fields and associated options, refer to printcap(4).

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
       ln03jaof print filter: To  specify  the  SoftODL  database
       path To specify SoftODL font style and size

       For  a complete description of the -A option and its arguments,
 refer to lpr(1).

ERRORS    [Toc]    [Back]

       /etc/printcap file specifies the name of the error log.
