1. Assuming there is an existing Hewlett-Packard 2631A line
printer named hp2, it will use the hp model interface after
the command:
/usr/lib/lpadmin -php2 -rohp
To obtain compressed print on hp2, use the command:
lp -dhp2 -o-cfiks
2. A Diablo 1640 printer named s t 1 can be added to the 1 p 1
configuration with the command:
/usr/lib/lpadmin -pst1 -v/dev/tty20
-m1640
An nroff document may be printed on st1 in any of the
following ways:
nroff -T450fiks I lp -dst1 -of
nroff -T450-12fiks I lp -dst1 -of
nroff -T37fiks I col I lp -dst1
The following command prints the password file on s t 1 in
