XDPR(1)							XDPR(1)

NAME
       xdpr - dump an X window directly to a printer

SYNOPSIS
       xdpr  [ filename ] [ -display host:display ] [ -Pprinter ]
       [ -device devtype ] [ option ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       Xdpr uses the commands xwd, xpr, and lpr or lp to dump  an
       X  window,  process  it for a particular printer type, and
       print it out on the printer of your choice.  This  is  the
       easiest	way  to get  a	printout  of  a window.	 Xdpr by
       default will print the largest possible representation  of
       the window on the output page.

       The  options  for xdpr are the same as those for xpr, xwd,
       and  lpr or  lp.	  The	most  commonly-used  options  are
       described  below;  see the manual pages for these commands
       for more detailed descriptions of the many options  avail-
       able.

OPTIONS
       filename
	      Specifies a file containing a window dump (created
	      by xwd) to be printed instead  of selecting  an	X
	      window.

       -Pprinter
	      Specifies a  printer  to send the output to.  If a
	      printer name is not specified here,  xdpr (really,
	      lpr  or  lp)  will  send your output to the printer
	      specified by the PRINTER environment variable.   Be
	      sure  that  type	of  the printer matches the type
	      specified with the -device option.

       -display host:display[.screen]
	      Normally, xdpr gets the host and display number  to
	      use from the environment variable ``DISPLAY.''  One
	      can, however, specify them explicitly; see X(1).

       -device devtype
	      Specifies the device on  which  the  file will  be
	      printed.	Currently supported:
		   la100  Digital LA100
		   ljet HP LaserJet series and other monochrome
			  PCL devices such as ThinkJet, QuietJet,
			  RuggedWriter, HP2560 series, and HP2930
			  series printers
		   ln03 Digital LN03
		   pjet HP PaintJet (color mode)
		   pjetxl HP  HP  PaintJet  XL	Color	Graphics
			  Printer (color mode)

		   ps	PostScript printer

	      The  default  is	PostScript.   -device  lw (Laser-
	      Writer) is equivalent to -device ps and is provided
	      only for backwards compatibility.

       -help  This  option  displays the list of options known to
	      xdpr.

       Any other arguments will be passed to the  xwd,	xpr,  and
       lpr or lp commands as appropriate for each.
