Read lpr Configuration 0 ▲ Jake Worth 46 minutes ago · Tech · hide · 0 comments I’ve written about lpr before; to me the ability to send a file to my printer from the command line is a magic trick. What if I want to know where the file is going to go before sending it? lpr’s docs say: The LPDEST and PRINTER environment variables are consulted first. If neither are set, the current default set using the lpoptions(1) command is used, followed by the default set using the lpadmin(8) command. No comments yet. Log in to reply on the Fediverse.
