| 4# 5# This enables a simple local "raw" printer, hooked up to the first 6# parallel port. No kind of filtering is done, so everything you 7# pass to the "lpr" command will be printed unmodified. 8# 9# Remember, for further print queues you're going to add, you have to 10# chose different spool directories (the "sd" capability below), 11# otherwise you will greatly confuse lpd. 12# 13# For some advanced printing, have a look at the "apsfilter" package. 14# It plugs into the lpd system, allowing you to print a variety of 15# different file types by converting everything to PostScript(tm) 16# format. If you don't have a PostScript(tm) printer, don't panic, 17# but do also install the "ghostscript" package. 18# 19# Do also refer to section 7 (Printing) of the handbook. A local copy 20# can be found under /usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.{html,latin1}. 21# 22lp|local line printer:\ 23 :lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs: 24# 25# Sample remote printer.
