lpfilter — Administer Filters Used with the LP Print Service

Synopsis

/usr/sbin/lpfilter -f filter-name {- | -i | -l | -x | -F pathname}

Description

Use the lpfilter command to add, change, delete, or list a filter used with the LP print service. These filters convert the content of a file to have a content type acceptable to a printer.

Note

If the lp command specifies more than one document, the filtering chain is determined by the first document. Other documents may have a different format, but they print correctly only if the filter chain is able to handle their format.

Options

Arguments consist of the -f filter-name option and exactly one of the following arguments {- | -i | -l | -x | -F pathname}.

-f filter-name
