Did you see the note from Gerald Damian? Essentially,
you update the /etc/printers.conf file so that Solaris lp
puts the option values on the S (or it might be O) command
line:
#
# The preferred method of modifying this file is through the use of
# lpset(1M) or fncreate_printer(1M)
#
pr:bsdaddr=servername,pr,Solaris: <- Solaris at end is important
_default:use=pr: <- sets default printer
Now you can do lp -o this
and in the control file you will get:
Hhostname
Pusername
Sthis
(Or perhaps on the O line, you get 'Othis').
And you set the :prefix_option_to_optiop=S,O Z
in the printcap:
(From the CHANGES file:
I ran into problems with the SysV to LPRng option passing. Apparently
different versions of SysV printing pass options as S, O, or
whathave you values in the control file. The prefix_o_to_z
option has been replaced by the more general 'prefix_option_to_option'
facililty. This specifies the control file option lines to
prefix to a control file option line. For example:
prefix_option_to_option=S,O Z will prefix S and O to Z
prefix_option_to_option=Z O will prefix Z to O.
This now appears to cover all cases, and the LPRng HOWTO
has been modified as well.
)
So your printcap would look like
pr:lp=%P@server
pr:server:
:prefix_option_to_option=S,O Z
:lp=....
