Logical printers
The printer’s network interface includes three logical printers.
•
lp must be used for printing a file created using the printer
driver.
•
sjis must be used for printing a text file of Shift JIS Kanji
code.
•
euc must be used for the printing a text file of the EUC
Kanji code.

sjis and euc function only as PostScript printers.
BSD-based UNIX
Print using the
lpr
command.
# lpr Pmyprn_lp test.prn
If the
lprm
command is used, the print job is cancelled.
Example: To delete a print job (Job ID 123) on the
myprn_lp
# lprm Pmyprn_lp 123
Verify the printer status using the
lpq
command.
•
The result of
lpq
may not be displayed correctly depending
on UNIX operating system specification.
•
While the short format of
lpq
is a UNIX compatible format,
the long format is unique to this network interface.
Example of the short format:
# lpq Pmyprn_lp
Example of the long format:
# lpq Pmyprn_lp_lp
