Bugs

       Using patterns in diagrams gives ugly results.

Description

       plpprintd  provides  a  print  server for a Psion, connected to the PC.  Using plpprintd, you can use the
       Psion's "Print via PC" feature to access any printer, available on your PC. When receiving a  print  job,
       the data is converted to Postscript® and then send to a printer.

Name

       plpprintd - Daemon for printing via PC from a Psion.

Options

-d,--debug
              Enable additional debug messages and stay in foreground (do not fork).

       -h,--help
              Display a short help text and exit.

       -v,--verbose
              Increase verbosity

       -V,--version
              Display the version and exit

       -s,--spooldir=dir
              Specify a directory to use for temporary spool files. If this option is missing, a builtin default
              /var/spool/plpprint is used.

       -c,--printcmd=cmd
              Specify  a  command  for  actually  sending a print job to the printer. The specified command must
              receive the data from its standard input. If this option is missing, a builtin default lpr-Ppsion
              is used.

       -p,--port=[host:]port
              Specify the host and port to connect to (e.g. The port where ncpd is listening on)  -  by  default
              the  host  is  127.0.0.1  and  the port is looked up in /etc/services. If it is not found there, a
              builtin value of 7501 is used.

       FILES

       /usr/share/plptools/prolog.ps
              contains the Postscript(®) dictionary, needed for printing the jobs.

       /usr/share/plptools/fontmap
              specifies the font mapping to be used. This file is used to convert the Psion's  font  names  into
              valid  Postscript(®)  font  names. Its format is described at the beginning of it. If a Psion font
              name is received which can not be found in this file, a builtin default Courier is used.
