Print Command - Xerox DocuColor 2060 Supplementary Manual

Printing using Xerox utilities and lpr utilities (DOS and UNIX)

print command

Syntax
Required
arguments
3-2
Use the print command to send a document to a specific print
queue and to specify printing options you want to apply to your
document.
NOTE: Users of korn shell on UNIX must alias the Xerox print
command, since ksh has a built-in print command.
To submit a print job, enter the print command and its options on
the command line using the following syntax:
print -printername <vpname> [<options>] <filenames>
OR
print -p <vpname> [<options>] <filenames>
NOTE: The syntax above only works when printing to the default
NPS/IPS printer controller. Users with more than one NPS/IPS
printer controller must specify the hostname for the controller
using the "-ser" or "-server" option.
When using the "-ser" or "-server" option, the virtual printer must
exist on the alternate server.
The following arguments are required for the print command:
• -printername <vpname> OR -p <vpname>
The virtual printer that you want to use. To determine which
virtual printers are available, use the listq command. Refer to
"Listq" in this chapter for more information.
• <filenames>
The name of the file that you want to print, including any
filename extension.
NOTE: In UNIX, when you specify the name of the file, make
sure that it does not include the following characters: & ! " ' ' $ - ;
? These characters in filenames may conflict with other UNIX
commands and expressions.
If you specify more than one file, the banner page displays the
name of the first file. If you use the listjob command, the name
of the first file appears as the job name.
