- I have configured remote queues as documented. These queues end up on Unix
- systems which use the "lpr" command, which accepts a few qualifiers
- (e.g. -p, -f, etc.). Is there a way to pass such qualifiers via
- Multinet's lpd (e.g. PRINT/PARAMETER=), and why can't I find a comment
- anywhere in the documentation about this ?
-
- In case it matters, it's a clustered 4000-200 at VMS 5.5.
-
- Apologies if this is a FAQ, since I can't find a FAQ list. Please reply
- by e-mail as reading news is an infrequent activity for me.
