No kind of filtering is done, so everything you pass 7230557Sjimharris# to the "lpr" command will be printed unmodified. 8230557Sjimharris# 9230557Sjimharris# Remember, for further print queues you're going to add, you have 10230557Sjimharris# to choose different spool directories (the "sd" capability below), 11230557Sjimharris# otherwise you will greatly confuse lpd. 12230557Sjimharris# 13230557Sjimharris# For some advanced printing, have a look at the "apsfilter" package. 14230557Sjimharris# It plugs into the lpd system, allowing you to print a variety of 15230557Sjimharris# different file types by converting everything to PostScript(tm) 16230557Sjimharris# format.
