The general syntax for BSD is: lpr filename lpr To print a file from a BSD-compatible system, use the lpr command. If your system uses both flavors of printing commands, experiment to see which commands work the best for you.Īt IU, the laser printers in the Student Technology Centers and the Residential Technology Centers, as well as printers in offices, cannot print using normal Unix print commands. Be sure to pay attention to what kind of printing commands (BSD or System V) your system uses. The following sections explain how to do a number of printing tasks. This document will not cover AIX print commands. AIX, the operating system on the Research Database Complex (RDC), has its own print commands, but it also supports BSD and System V commands. The UITS central servers at Indiana University, in particular, support both varieties. Most systems, however, understand either the BSD or System V commands, or in some cases, both. The various implementations of Unix handle printing tasks in different ways. Information here may no longer be accurate, and links may no longer be available or reliable.
