NAME
       lp - line printer

DESCRIPTION
       The lp device refers to the line printer attached to the parallel port.
       Any byte written to this device is printed.  Only one process may  have
       the device open.

       The  write  (2) call may return with a smaller count then the number of
       bytes requested to write.  The next write call is then likely  to  fail
       with  the  error	 code EAGAIN if the printer is out of paper, or EIO if
       the printer is turned off.

FILES
       /dev/lp	 Parallel port device.

SEE ALSO
       lp(1).

BUGS
       Only one parallel port is supported.
