     NAME
          mkcentpr - register a Centronics-interface printer with LP

     SYNOPSIS
          /usr/spool/lp/etc/util/mkcentpr printer printer-type

     DESCRIPTION
          mkcentpr creates a filter program that controls a printer
          that communicates with the IRIS through a Centronics
          interface, then registers the printer with LP.  A log file
          is also created.  printer is the name you give the printer
          (see lpadmin (1M)). printer-type is the type of printer
          connected to /dev/cent. You must specify the printer type by
          providing one of the following keys:

          mits      for Mitsubishi
          tek      for the Tektronics 4692
          vers      for the Versatec

          After running this program, you might consider making this
          printer the default printer using lpadmin(1M).

          Run this program as superuser from directory
          /usr/spool/lp/etc/util.
