LPF_549YMCIF(8) — NEWS-OS Programmer’s Manual
NAME
lpf_549ymcif, lpf_549ymckif, lpf_549blckif − CDIF print filters for NWP-549
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sony/lib/lpf_549ymcif
/usr/sony/lib/lpf_549ymckif
/usr/sony/lib/lpf_549blckif
DESCRIPTION
lpf_549ymcif, lpf_549ymckif and lpf_549blckif are lpr(1) output filters for outputting data input as CDIF format data to the NWP-549 (color printer).
The three filters correspond to the different types of color ribbons which can be mounted in the NWP-549 (3-color, 4-color and monochrome ink sheet). Normally, only one NWP-549 entry is left in the file /etc/printcap (default colorprinter_name) and the other two are commented out (by typing a # at the beginning of the line). When using a remote printer, only one NWP-549 entry should be left in the /etc/printcap printer server machine file.
EXAMPLES
To use these files, they must be recorded in the file /etc/printcap.
The default setting is:
:cf=/usr/sony/lib/lpf_549{ymcif,ymckif,blckif}: To execute it, the normal method of using lpr(1) should be employed:
lpr −Pcolorprinter_name −c CDIFdata Note that the filter setting option (−c in this case) must be specified.
LIMITS
To make a KANJI character output, Sony-format Outline font (Available in NWF-605, NWF-629, NWF-631 − 636C etc.) is required.
