16 With nprint, you can print files on print queues of a NetWare file
17 server.
18 There are a lot of options, so you should probably wrap some default
20 configurations into some shell scripts.
21 nprint looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user
23 name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more information.
24 Please note that the access permissions of .nwclient MUST be 600, for
25 security reasons.

29 filename
30 filename is the name of the file you want to print. If file is '-',
31 or no filename is given, standard input is used.
32 -h
34 -h is used to print out a short help text.
35 -S server
37 server is the name of the server you want to use.
38 -U username
40 username is the user name to use for the print request at the
41 server.
42 -P password
44 password is the password to use for the print request at the server.
45 If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection
46 to the server, nprint prompts for a password.
47 -n
49 -n should be given if no password is required for the print request.
50 -C
52 By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are
53 sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn
54 off this conversion by -C.
55 -q queuename
57 queuename is the name of the print queue to use at the print server.
58 At present, you must specify it in upper case characters.
59 -d job-description
61 job-description is the string that appears in pconsole when you list
62 the jobs for the print queue. It will also appear in the "Descrip‐
63 tion" field on the banner page.
64 -p pathname-in-banner
66 pathname-in-banner is the string (up to 79 characters) you want to
67 be printed in the "Directory" field on the banner page.
68 -B username-in-banner
70 username-in-banner is the string (up to 12 characters) you want to
71 appear on the lower part of the banner page. It will also appear in
72 the "User name" field.
73 -s
75 Supress printing of banner page
76 -f filename-in-banner
78 filename-in-banner is the string (up to 12 characters) you want to
79 appear in large letters on the lower part of the banner page.
80 Default: the name of the file that is printed, or 'stdin'.
81 -l lines
83 lines is the number of lines to put on one page. Default: 66.
84 -r rows
86 rows is the number of rows to put on one page. Default: 80.
87 -c copies
89 copies tells the print server to the specified number of copies.
90 Default: 1.
91 -t tabs
93 tabs is the number of spaces to print for a Tab-Character. Default:
94 8.
95 -T
97 tells the print server to expand Tab-Character and use 8 spaces
98 -N
100 tells the print server not to use Form Feeds
101 -F form-number
103 form-number is the the number of the form to be put into the
104 printer. If it's different from the one currently in the printer,
105 your job is only printed if a printer operator has put in the cor‐
106 rect form.

110 The '-B' option was formerly '-b'. But it conflicted with 'bindery
111 only' login option.
