DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  ln05jaof  filter  is used to filter text data for the
       Japanese DEClaser 2300 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 ln05jaof filter can handle plain text files and  files
       preprocessed by nroff. The filter translates nroff control
       sequences for underlining, superscripting, and  subscripting
  into  the  proper  control sequences for the DEClaser
       2300 printer.

       The ln05jaof 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 DEClaser 2300 printer can be  configured  to  use  the
       software  on-demand  loading  (SoftODL) mechanism to print
       user-defined 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
       ln05jaof  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]
