Banners, Priority, and Accounting</a></h1>
<p>Options used:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><var class="LITERAL">ab</var> FLAG <span class=
"emphasis"><i class="EMPHASIS">always print
banner</i></span></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><var class="LITERAL">sh</var> FLAG <span class=
"emphasis"><i class="EMPHASIS">suppress header
(banner)</i></span></p>
</li>
</ul>
<br>
<br>
<p>The legacy or vintage BSD pretty printing facility support
allowed users to specify the title (<var class="LITERAL">-T
title</var>), indentation (<var class="LITERAL">-i
indent</var>), width (<var class="LITERAL">-i indent</var>)
of output for pretty printing. These probably will not have
any effect, but their values are placed in the control file
and sent to the <b class="APPLICATION">lpd</b> server.</p>
<p>The job name (<var class="LITERAL">-J name</var>) and no
banner page (<var class="LITERAL">-h</var>) literals also
cause information to be placed in the control file. The <var
class="LITERAL">-J</var> value is used to specify a job name
on a banner page, and is placed in the control file. The <var
class="LITERAL">-h</var> (no header) has the strange effect
of <span class="emphasis"><i class="EMPHASIS">not</i></span>
putting <span class="emphasis"><i class="EMPHASIS">banner
name</i></span> information in the control file. Apparently,
if you do not have a name for your banner then no name will
be sent.</p>
<p>If the <var class="LITERAL">:sh</var> option is explicitly
specified in a printcap entry for the <b class=
"APPLICATION">lpr</b> client, then it has the effect of the
<var class="LITERAL">-h</var> literal. However, the <var
class="LITERAL">:ab</var> (Always Print Banner) option can be
used on the print server to always force a banner to be
printed even if the user does not specify a banner.</p>
<p>Finally, the <var class="LITERAL">-R</var> literal allows
additional accounting information to be placed in the control
file.</p>
