Setting Up Different Unix Systems Using The Lpr; Command - Epson C82378 Administrator's Manual

Many different remote printer names may be set up, all directed
to the same network adapter remote host, and each is given a
different local printer name to be redirected. Different types of
print jobs may be sent to different printer names, which will then
all print out on the same printer, through the same network
adapter interface, but using different filters.
The remote printer name options used to invoke the different
filters are as follows:
lpb
lpa
lpbf
lpaf
All other remote printer name options will be treated the same as
lpb.
The following is an example of sending a text file, "txtfile", via lpr
with a form feed appended:
% lpr -plpaf txtfile
