LPD-Supported Commands for Control File Printing
Table 35 identifies the LPD control file printing commands that the AS/400 system
supports. A control file is used to pass all of the printing options and attributes that
were selected on the SNDTCPSPLF command to the LPD process on the
destination system. You cannot update the control file.

LPD-Supported Control File Options and Attributes
Table 36 identifies the LPD control file options and attributes that the AS/400 system
supports. The attributes that the AS/400 implementation of LPD does not support
are ignored if sent with the spooled file.
The control file and attribute information are not used when sending files from one
AS/400 system to another if the file was not transformed before sending. In this
case, all the attributes of the spooled file on the receiving system are the same as
they were on the sending system.
