LPD 控制著主機上印表機的一切。
- 這些事情都是它在負責的:
+ 它負責這些工作:
- It controls access to attached printers and printers
- attached to other hosts on the network.
+ 控制本機及網路印表機的使用。print jobs
- It enables users to submit files to be printed; these
- submissions are known as jobs.
+ 讓使用者可以列印文件,送出的文件稱為工作。
+
- It prevents multiple users from accessing a printer at the
- same time by maintaining a queue for each
- printer.
+ 為每台印表機準備一個佇列,
+ 避免多個使用者同時使用同一台印表機。
- It can print header pages (also known
- as banner or burst
- pages) so users can easily find jobs they have printed in a
- stack of printouts.
+ 列印 header pages (又稱為
+ banner or burst
+ pages),方便使用者在出紙閘中找到自已列印的文件。
- It takes care of communications parameters for printers
- connected on serial ports.
+ 把接在串列埠上的印表機的通訊參數設定好。
- It can send jobs over the network to a
- LPD spooler on another host.
+ 利用網路傳送列印工作給別台主機上的
+ LPD。
- It can run special filters to format jobs to be printed for
- various printer languages or printer capabilities.
+ 執行特別的過濾程式將列印工作格式化以配合不同的列印語言或印表機。
+
- It can account for printer usage.
+ 統計印表機的使用情況。
- Through a configuration file
- (/etc/printcap), and by providing the special
- filter programs, you can enable the LPD
- system to do all or some
- subset of the above for a great variety of printer hardware.
+ 藉由設定檔 (/etc/printcap) 以及過濾程式的幫助,
+ 您可以讓大多數的印表機配合 LPD
+ 達成上述全部或部份的功能。
- Why You Should Use the Spooler
+ 為什麼需要使用多工緩衝處理器
- If you are the sole user of your system, you may be wondering
- why you should bother with the spooler when you do not need access
- control, header pages, or printer accounting. While it is
- possible to enable direct access to a printer, you should use the
- spooler anyway since:
+ 如果您的系統是個人使用,
+ 不需要控制存取權限、列印標題頁或者統計使用情況等功能時,
+ 您可能會覺得很奇怪為什麼還需要去管這個多工緩衝處理器。
+ 當然要直接控制印表機可行的,
+ 不過無論如何您還是需要多工緩衝處理器,因為:
- LPD prints jobs in the background;
- you do not have to wait
- for data to be copied to the printer.
+ LPD 可以在背景 (background)
+ 列印,您不需要在那邊等文件送到印表機。&tex;
- LPD can conveniently run a job
- to be printed through
- filters to add date/time headers or convert a special file
- format (such as a &tex; DVI file) into a format the printer will
- understand. You will not have to do these steps
- manually.
+ LPD 可以很輕鬆地用過濾器增加日期 /
+ 時間於頁首或是把特別的檔案格式 (像是 &tex; DVI 檔)
+ 轉換成印表機看得懂的的格式,您不需要手動去做這些步驟。
- Many free and commercial programs that provide a print
- feature usually expect to talk to the spooler on your system.
- By setting up the spooling system, you will more easily
- support other software you may later add or already
- have.
+ 許多免費或商業軟體提供的列印功能通常都是和多工緩衝處理器溝通。
+ 透過設定緩衝系統,支援您現有或是即將要安裝的其他軟體將變得更容易。

- Basic Setup
+ 基礎設定
- To use printers with the LPD spooling
- system, you will need to
- set up both your printer hardware and the
- LPD software. This
- document describes two levels of setup:
