NAME

       xpp - X Printing Panel

SYNOPSIS

       xpp [options] [files] ...

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page briefly documents the xpp command.  This manual page
       was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the  original
       program does not have a manual page.

       xpp  (the  X  Printing  Panel)  is  a  graphical  interface to the CUPS
       printing system.  It can be used as a drop-in replacement for lpr(1) or
       lp(1)  for  programs  that  want to spool print jobs, or to print files
       directly from the command line.

OPTIONS

       The following options are recognized by xpp:

       -d destination

       -P destination
            Prints files to the named destination queue.

       -# copies
            Sets the number of copies to print from 1 to 100.

       -C name
            Sets the job name.

       -J name
            Sets the job name.

       -t name

       -T name
            Sets the job name.

       -l
            Specifies that  the  print  file  is  already  formatted  for  the
            destination  and  should be sent without filtering. This option is
            equivalent to "-oraw".

       -o option
            Sets a job option.

       -p
            Specifies that the print file should be formatted  with  a  shaded
            header with the date, time, job name, and page number. This option
            is equivalent to "-oprettyprint" and is only useful when  printing
            text files.

       -r
            Specifies  that  the  named  print  files  should be deleted after
            printing them.

       -q priority
            Specify the priority of the print job (from 1 to 100).

COMPATIBILITY

       The "c", "d", "f",  "g",  "i",  "m",  "v",  and  "w"  options  are  not
       supported by XPP and will produce a warning message if used.
