T
his chapter describes the following Annex utilities and daemons:
• aprint
• erpcd
• rtelnet
The aprint utility sends files directly to an Annex printer connected to
either the parallel or serial line port. The aprint utility can be used as a
direct command or integrated with the standard host print-spooling
m.
mechanis Table C-77 describes the arguments for aprint. The syntax
is:
aprint [–Aannex [–Lline]] [–f] [–Fstring] [–pprinterport] [filename...]
The –L and –p fields are mutually exclusive. If both fields are missing,
the Annex uses parallel printer port 1; using –L0 with no –p field
sends data to parallel printer port 1.
In general, applications written for use with the Annex should not use
aprint to connect to serial ports. Instead, the ports should be
configured as slave or adaptive and applications should use TCP to
connect to them directly (see The Port Server and Rotaries on page
A-71).
