Anylpr jobs will only be able to use the defaults as described in “Parameter defaults.”For submission of .pdf, .vpc, or other non-text type jobs, be sure to use the -o l option onthe lpr command line as the last parameter before the job file name as in this example:lpr -PHostName -PXVTPrinterName -o lBinaryJobFileFor more information on lpr command parameters, type lpr on the command line.NOTEJob files to be submitted through an lpr command cannot contain blankspaces, pound signs (#), equal signs (=), or colons (:) in their names.NOTEIn order to use lpr printing, the TCP/IP Print Server must be installed andstarted.When submitting jobs to VIPO through lpr commands the VIPO Serverconsole will show the job names with extra numeric tags, or IDs,appended to the file extension. Because all lpr jobs are sent to a commonspool area, the extra tags are needed to avoid file name collisions andguarantee unique name identifiers. The unique tags generated by thesystem are appended to the original files before file submission andprocessing by the VIPO Server. The resulting files do not have the extranumeric tags.
