Linux LPR Properties Dialog

Properties can be changed for each printer on the system, including printers from other manufacturers. However advanced options are only available for Linux printers.

For options to be kept between LLPR sessions, click the Save button at the bottom of the dialog.

General

This tab allows you to change the used paper size for printing, the orientation of the documents, enable duplex features, add start and end banners, and change the number of pages per sheet.

Image

The image tab allows you to set options that will be used when printing image files through LLPR directly, i.e. when a non-Postscript document is passed on the command line. Supported image formats include JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, TIFF, PhotoCD, RGB, PPM, XPM, XBM, and Sun Raster. The biplane picture is provided courtesy of Mark Adler.

HP-GL/2

LLPR is able to print documents in the HP-GL/2 format, which is used by some plotters and also as an interchange format for some CAD software.

Advanced

This tab allows you to override the default settings for the printer. Since some of these settings may sometimes be in conflict with each other, you won't be able to click on OK or Save until all conflicts have been resolved.
