PARAMETERS Specifies the file to record accounting information. DESCRIPTION The ln05jaof filter is used to filter text data for the Japanese DE- Claser 2300 printer. The filter handles the device dependencies of the printer and performs accounting functions. At print job completion times, accounting records are written to the file specified by the af field in the /etc/printcap file. The ln05jaof filter can handle plain text files and files preprocessed by nroff. The filter translates nroff control sequences for underlin- ing, superscripting, and subscripting into the proper control sequences for the DEClaser 2300 printer. The ln05jaof filter can be the specified filter in both the of and the if fields in the /etc/printcap file. For a description of these fields, see printcap(4). The DEClaser 2300 printer can be configured to use the software on-de- mand loading (SoftODL) mechanism to print user-defined characters (UDCs). See i18n_printing(5) for a description of SoftODL. To enable SoftODL printing, set the ys field in /etc/printcap to 256. You can also set the default SoftODL database, style, and size by using the odldb and odlstyle options of the ya field. If you specify a value for the yt field, use fifo. For more information on these fields and associated options, refer to printcap(4). NOTES The lpr command supports a number of flags and associated options to enable localization features supported by various printers. The follow- ing can be used with the ln05jaof print filter: To specify the SoftODL database path To specify SoftODL font style and size For a complete description of this flag and its options, refer to lpr(1). ERRORS The lf field (default value is /dev/null) in the /etc/printcap file specifies the name of the error log.
