DESCRIPTION
The la380cbof filter is used to filter text data for the LA380-CB
printer. The filter handles the device dependencies of the printer and
performs accounting functions. At print job completion times, account‐
ing records are written to the file specified by the af field in the
/etc/printcap file.
The la380cbof filter can handle plain text files and files that have
been preprocessed by nroff. Either kind of file can contain non-ASCII
characters. The la380cbof filter translates nroff control sequences for
underlining, superscripting, and subscripting into the proper control
sequences for the LA380-CB printer.
The la380cbof filter can be the specified filter in both the of and the
if fields in the /etc/printcap file. For more information about these
fields, see printcap(4).
The LA380-CB printer can be configured to use the software on-demand
loading (SoftODL) mechanism to print the user defined characters
(UDCs). Refer to i18n_printing(5) for a more detailed description Soft‐
ODL.
To enable SoftODL printing, set the ys field in /etc/printcap to be
256. You may also set the default SoftODL database, style and size by
specifying the odldb and odlstyle options in the ya field. If you
specify a value for the yt field, specify fifo. See printcap(4) for
more information about these fields and associated options.
NOTES
The lpr command supports a number of options and associated arguments
to enable localization features supported by various printers. The fol‐
lowing can be used with the la380cbof print filter: To specify the
SoftODL database path To specify SoftODL font style and size
For a complete description of the -A option and its arguments, refer to
lpr(1).
ERRORS
The lf field (default value is /dev/null) in the /etc/printcap file
specifies the name of the error log.
