- The _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r is a server which emulates a LaserWriter. It
- registers itself on the network as a Laserwriter, accepts
- print requests from Macintoshes and other machines, and
- spools them for printing. The _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r is an
- implementation of the server side of the AppleTalk Printer
- Access Protocol (PAP). It communicates with the LaserWriter
- driver on the Macintosh, and answers printer queries. It
- will collect and cache dictionaries, so they do not have to
- be retransmitted. The _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r will also parse a PPD
- (PostScript Printer Description) file and return information
- about the device to the Macintosh printer driver.
-
- ----DDDD turns on debugging and prevents the papserver from
- backgrounding itself.
-
- ----BBBB causes _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r to convert 8-bit characters to their
- 7-bit equivalents. This option should be used if your
- job will pass through any program or device that cannot
- handle 8-bit characters. It should be used if you are
- connecting to a TranScript queue. The ----BBBB option is not
- necessary if you are using _p_s_f as your output driver.
-
- ----IIII causes all dictionaries that are needed by the job to
- be pre-pended to the job. This is useful for printing
- to devices that do not store dictionaries, such as
- software PostScript interpreters. The ----IIII option is
- unnecessary if you are using the _p_s_f program as your
- output program, as _p_s_f will check that the correct
- dictionary versions are loaded before it sends the job.
-
- ----XXXX causes exitserver commands to be removed from
- dictionaries before they are pre-pended to the job.
- This option only has an effect if you are using the ----IIII
- option. Some RIPs (most notably NewsPrint) cannot
- process exitserver commands.
-
- ----KKKK Will include information in job and class names that
- can be interpreted by _p_s_f(_1_m). This will give strange
- job names if used on printers that do not use _p_s_f as
- the output driver. This information enables more
- features in the K-Spool Monitor.

-
-
- ----LLLL makes _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r call _l_p rather than _l_p_r on systems
- where _l_p_r is the default (SGI and SUN). This option is
- useful only on SGI machines (where the _l_p and _l_p_r
- systems both exist), and the user wants to route the
- jobs through _l_p.
-
- ----MMMM make papserver accept input from the Microspot MacPlot
- driver for the Macintosh. This changes the default
- type to "Plotter" and expects that the input will be
- HPGL, which will be passed through unchanged.
-
- ----NNNN makes _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r not attempt to translate carriage
- returns to newlines. This option is obsolete, as it is
- now the default.
-
- ----nnnn makes _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r attempt to translate carriage returns
- to newlines. This makes the postscript files
- generated easilly readable on the UNIX machine. This
- option should not be used with level 2 devices, as
- bitmaps will be corrupted. It is never necessary if
- K-Spool is driving the printer.
-
- ----RRRR makes _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r pass all PostScript through to the
- program being executed, including queries. The program
- must be a RIP capable of answering PostScript queries
- correctly.
-
- ----FFFF adds support for FlexFax. If a PostScript fax is
- detected, it will call /usr/local/bin/sendfax with the
- correct arguments.
-
- ----CCCC causes _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r to change directory to ddddiiiirrrr rather than
- the spool directory of the printer. When you are
- calling a program or spooling to a remote printer that
- does not have a defined spool directory, this option
- can be used to tell _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r where to look for the _p_p_d
- file.
-
- ----PPPP gives the _p_p_d file name. The default is PRINTER.PPD in
- the current directory.
-
- ----EEEE and the specified _p_r_o_g_r_a_m causes _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r to fork
- _p_r_o_g_r_a_m rather than _l_p_r(1) (or _l_p(1)). All ----OOOO options
- are also passed on to _p_r_o_g_r_a_m, which must accept the
- PostScript job via standard input. The _p_r_o_g_r_a_m_P _c_a_n
- _s_e_n_d _s_t_a_t_u_s _o_n _s_t_a_n_d_a_r_d _o_u_t_p_u_t _a_n_d _e_r_r_o_r_s _o_n _s_t_a_n_d_a_r_d

-
- ----OOOO and the specified _o_p_t_i_o_n causes _l_p_r(1) or _l_p(1) to be
- invoked with the argument _o_p_t_i_o_n. Up to 10 ----OOOO options
- may be specified; they will be passed on in the same
- order they are specified. Illegal options may cause

-
- _l_p_r(1) or _l_p(_1) to fail. The ----OOOO option is usually
- used for devices which require special arguments to
- print PostScript.
-
- ----oooo uses the specified _O_P_I_o_p_t_i_o_n_s as directives for OPI
- picture replacement in the print job (for _F_u_l_l_P_r_e_s_s
- users only). The options are like _p_r_i_n_t_c_a_p(5), a
- sequence of colon-separated, _k_e_y_n_a_m_e=_v_a_l_u_e items, where
- each _k_e_y_n_a_m_e is 2 letters. There are only two _k_e_y_n_a_m_es
- that _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r pays attention to. The first, eeeeoooo, if
- present, tells _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r to perform the OPI replacement
- before handing the job to a printer. The second, rrrrpppp,
- is the resolution at which to replace pictures. If the
- _v_a_l_u_e of rrrrpppp is ppppppppdddd, _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r will replace it with the
- printer's resolution from the PPD file; otherwise this
- option is also passed through the print job.
-
- Normally, _p_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r is invoked with two arguments, the
- spooler's AppleTalk name and the target name of the printer
- to which it will forward jobs. If only one argument is
- given, it is assumed to be the name of the printer to which
- it ought to spool. In this case, the last of the nicknames
- in the _p_r_i_n_t_c_a_p(5) file with the string `` Spooler''
- appended is used as the spooler's AppleTalk name.
-
- _P_a_p_s_e_r_v_e_r is usually started by _a_t_i_n_i_t(1m). If _p_s_f(1m) is
- being used as the output filter, it will generate a
- PRINTER.PPD file by querying the printer if one does not
- exist. Otherwise, the user is responsible for ensuring that
- a reasonable PRINTER.PPD file is available in the printer's
- spool directory.
