DESCRIPTION
During printer configuration, using the PrintConfig graphical interface or
the lprsetup program, you will be prompted to enter the name of a
configuration file for the device that you are installing. This file is
accessed during printer installation and configuration. It is not usually
necessary for a system administrator to modify this file.
The file lprsetup.dat contains the configuration data for all printers that
have special options supported by Digital UNIX. Although it is usually
possible to configure any serial printer to provide basic text output,
these configuration files enable special options such as support for PS (TM
Adobe).
During printers configuration, using the PrintConfig graphical interface or
the lprsetup script, you will be prompted to enter the name of the device
that you are installing. Data from the printer configuration will be added
to the file /etc/printcap as part of the runtime printer configuration
record. For example, the /usr/lbin directory contains the filter files
required for the printer. The printer configuration table will include a
path to the appropriate filter and this path will be set as a printcap flag
during printer installation and configuration.
The lprsetup.dat file contains the following fields:
known
A list of all known devices that are defined in this file.
PD= A short description of the printer.
device_id
The string that identifies the device, from the table below. (This is
usually similar to the name of the printer on the casing, such asd
ln17ps
printcap_symbol
A list of flags used to set printer characteristics in the file
/etc/printcap. The entry for each printer contains a number of
printcap_flag fields. Refer to the printcap(4) reference page for a
description of the printcap symbols.
printer description
One or more lines of text that provide a brief description of the
device and its capabilities.
The following table provides a list of all devices that currently have a
