DESCRIPTION
       The  la380of  filter is used to filter Japanese text data for the LA380
       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 la380of filter can handle plain text files and files that have been
       preprocessed by nroff.  Either kind of file can contain non-ASCII char‐
       acters.	The filter translates nroff control sequences for underlining,
       superscripting, and subscripting into the proper control sequences  for
       the LA380 printer.

       The  la380of  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-J  printer  can  be configured to use the software on-demand
       loading (SoftODL) mechanism to print  user-defined  characters  (UDCs).
       For  a description of the SoftODL mechanism, refer to i18n_printing(5).
       To enable SoftODL printing, set the ys value in /etc/printcap  to  256.
       You can also set the default SoftODL database, style, and size by using
       the odldb and odlstyle options of the ya field.	If you specify a value
       for  the yt field, use fifo.  Refer to printcap(4) for more information
       on these fields.

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 la380of print filter: To specify the	 Soft‐
       ODL 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.
