Printing Commands for LINUX User.

Hello Friend !!
The most imp command with using Linux for printing document.
you can using Linux or Ubuntu but you have not idea how to get document print (This system must be rewired command )Don't worry
guru network informed you how to do ?

Ipr sends a job to the queue to printed (accepts ASCII,Postscript PDF ,others file )
Ipq views the contents of the queue
Ipr removes a job form the queue
System V printing commands such as Ip,Ipsate and cancel are also supported.

=> Using the print Command

The Ipr command is used to send a job to the printer.The Linux printing system will print files in ASCII,PostScript,PDF,and other formats.Most application under Linux output PostScript format.

The -p option is used to select a queue other than the default and -# is used to specify the number of copies.For example,to print 5 copies of the file report.ps on the accounting printer:[student@tationX ~]$ 1 pr -p accounting -#5 report.ps

when entered without options,Ipq lists the jobs in the default queue.As with Ipr,-p is used to specify a queue other than the

default.For example:[student@tationX ~]$ 1 pq

printer: pa@loacalhost

queue: no printable jobs in queue

server: no server active

status: job 'jay@localhost+916'removed at 12;16;03.083

Rank owner/Id class job files size time

To removed a job from the print queue use Iprm followed by the job member specifying un none-default print queue it necessary

for example :
