Xerox WorkCentre 7232/7242 System Administration Guide 87
NOTE: If the PostScript logical printer and the -C option are configured simultaneously
using CentreWare Internet Services, some functions may not work as expected.
Also, when specifying the PostScript logical printer as a default printer on UNIX, it is
recommended not to use the -C option by lpr. Refer to the -C option of the lpr
command.
NOTE: Some options which are not listed here (e.g. -m option) and which are not
processed by the workstation sending the print instructions, will not be valid.
NOTE: In the spool mode, up to 32 files can be specified in one lpr command. Any
files specified after the 32nd file will be ignored.
Example
To print a file named file1 to a printer named fxPS, enter the following command:
%lpr -PfxPS file1
To print three copies of file1 and three copies of file 2 to fxPS, enter the following:
%lpr -PfxPS -#3 file1 file2
To print a file named file1 to a printer named fxPS as an A4-sized (210 × 297 mm/
8.3 ×11.7 inches) duplex job, enter the following command:
%lpr -PfxPS -C,DUP,A4 file1
Delete (lprm)
The lprm command is used to delete print data.
Command format
/usr/ucb/lprm [-P printer name] job number
Command options
The following command options are available.
• -P printer name
This option specifies the printer name registered with /etc/printcap. If this option is
omitted, the default printer lp will be used.
• job number
This option specifies the job number of the print data to be deleted. A job number is a
serial number between 1 and 999 determined by the workstation. These numbers can
be checked by issuing an lpq command.
Instead of a job number, you can specify a user name or “-”.
This option is invalid in the non-spool mode.
• User name is only valid when you log-in as a superuser. When this option is taken,
all the print data you specify will be deleted.
This option is invalid in the non-spool mode.
