- <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
-
- <para><command>Xprt</command> is the Xprint print server
- for version 11 of the X Window system for non display devices
- such as printers and fax machines.</para>
-
- <para>Xprint is an advanced printing system which enables X11
- applications to use devices like printers, FAX or create
- documents in formats like PostScript, PCL or PDF. It may be used by
- clients such as <application>mozilla</application>.
- </para>
-
- <para>Xprint is a very flexible, extensible, scaleable, client/server
- print system based on ISO 10175 (and some other specs) and the X11
- rendering protocol.
- Using Xprint an application can search, query and use devices like
- printers, FAX machines or create documents in formats like PDF.
- In particular, an application can seek a printer, query supported
- attributes (like paper size, trays, fonts etc.), configure the printer
- device to match it's needs and print on it like on any other X device
- reusing parts of the code which is used for the video card Xserver.
- </para>
- </refsect1>

- <title>USAGE</title>
-
- <para>
- Although Xprt may be invoked from the command line, it is
- preferable to run it as a daemon via the init script
- <filename>/etc/init.d/xprint</filename> (where this script exists).
- </para>
-
- <para>Client programs such as mozilla will require environment
- variable <envar>${XPSERVERLIST}</envar> to be set, identifying the
- "display" on which Xprt is running. This variable may be set
- for all users via <filename>/etc/profile</filename> (or similar), using
- <userinput>/etc/init.d/xprint get_xpserverlist</userinput>:
- <informalexample>
- <programlisting>export XPSERVERLIST=`/etc/init.d/xprint get_xpserverlist`</programlisting>
- </informalexample>
- </para>
- </refsect1>

- <title>OPTIONS</title>
-
- <para>Many of Xprt's command line options are shared in common
- with the usual X servers (see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>Xserver</refentrytitle><manvolnum>__appmansuffix__</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
- Commonly used options include:</para>
-
- <variablelist>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><option>:<replaceable>display</replaceable></option>
- </term>
- <listitem>
- <para> The X server runs on the given display. If multiple X
- servers are to run simultaneously on a host, each must
- have a unique display number. Note that the standard X
- server (for video displays) typically runs on display
- :0. If <filename>/etc/init.d/xprint</filename> is used
- to invoke Xprt, it may be configured to automatically assign an available
- display number.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><option>-ac</option>
- </term>
- <listitem>
- <para>disables host-based access control mechanisms. Enables access
- by any host, and permits any host to modify the access control
- list. Use with extreme caution. This option exists primarily
- for running test suites remotely.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><option>-audit <replaceable>level</replaceable></option>
- </term>
- <listitem>
- <para>sets the audit trail level. The default level is 1, meaning
- only connection rejections are reported. Level 2 additionally
- reports all successful connections and disconnects. Level 4
- enables messages from the SECURITY extension, if present,
- including generation and revocation of authorizations and
- violations of the security policy. Level 0 turns off the audit
- trail. Audit lines are sent as standard error output.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><option>-fp <replaceable>fontpath</replaceable></option>
- </term>
- <listitem>
- <para>sets the search path for fonts. This path is a comma
- separated list of directories which Xprt searches for
- font databases.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><option>-pn</option>
- </term>
- <listitem>
- <para>permits the server to continue running if it fails to
- establish all of its well-known sockets (connection
- points for clients), but establishes at least
- one.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
-
- <varlistentry>
- <term><option>-XpFile <replaceable>file</replaceable></option>
- </term>
- <listitem>
- <para>Sets an altername Xprinters file (see section FILES).</para>

- The following environment variables are recognized by the X print server

-
- <variablelist>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><envar>${XPCONFIGDIR}</envar></term>
- <listitem>
- <para> This environment variable points to the root
- of the Xprint server configuration directory hierarchy.
- If the variable is not defined, the default
- path is be assumed. The default path may be
- <filename>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/</filename>,
- <filename>/usr/lib/X11/xserver/</filename>,
- <filename>/usr/share/Xprint/xserver/</filename> or

- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
-
- <varlistentry>
- <term><envar>${LANG}</envar></term>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- This environment variable selects the locale settings used by the Xprint server.
- Xprt allows language-specific settings (stored in <filename>${XPCONFIGDIR}/${LANG}/print/</filename>)
- which will override the default settings (stored in <filename>${XPCONFIGDIR}/C/print/</filename>).
- If <envar>${LANG}</envar> is not set "C" is assumed.

- <listitem>
- <para>
- `Xprinters' is the top most configuration file. It tells
- Xprt which specific printer names (e.g. mylaser) should
- be supported, and whether <citerefentry><refentrytitle>lpstat</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> or other commands
- should be used to automatically supplement the list of
- printers.

- <term><filename>${XPCONFIGDIR}/${LANG}/print/attributes/printer</filename></term>
- <term><filename>${XPCONFIGDIR}/C/print/attributes/printer</filename></term>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- The `printer' file maps printer names to model
- configurations (see `model-config' below). For example,
- "mylaser" could be mapped to a "HPDJ1600C", and all other
- arbitrary printers could be mapped to a default, such as
- "HPLJ4SI". When depending on <citerefentry><refentrytitle>lpstat</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> in the Xprinters
- file, setting up defaults in `printer' becomes all the
- more important.

- <listitem>
- <para>
- The `model-config' file has attributes that describe the
- printer model's capabilities and default settings.
- Printer model fonts may also be present. The model-config
- file also identifies the print ddx driver to be used.
-
- For each printer model supported, a complete hierarchy of
- files should exist. In most cases, these files do not
- need to be modified.
