XDPR(1)                  USER COMMANDS                    XDPR(1)



NAME
     xdpr - dump an X window directly to a printer

SYNOPSIS
     xdpr [ _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e ] [ -display _h_o_s_t:_d_i_s_p_l_a_y ] [ -P_p_r_i_n_t_e_r ]  [
     -device _p_r_i_n_t_e_r__d_e_v_i_c_e ] [ option ...  ]


DESCRIPTION
     _X_d_p_r uses the commands _x_w_d(1), _x_p_r(1), and _l_p_r(1) to dump an
     X  window,  process  it  for  a particular printer type, and
     print it out on the printer of your  choice.   This  is  the
     easiest  way to get a printout of a window.  _X_d_p_r by default
     will print the largest possible representation of the window
     on the output page.

     The options for _x_d_p_r are the same as those for _x_p_r, _x_w_d, and
     _l_p_r.   The  most  commonly-used options are described below;
     see the manual pages for these commands  for  more  detailed
     descriptions of the many options available.

     _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e
          Specifies a file containing a window dump  (created  by
          _x_w_d) to be printed instead of selecting an X window.

     -P_p_r_i_n_t_e_r
          Specifies a printer  to  send  the  output  to.   If  a
          printer  name is not specified here, _x_d_p_r (really, _l_p_r)
          will send your output to the printer specified  by  the
          _P_R_I_N_T_E_R  environment variable. Be sure that type of the
          printer matches the type  specified  with  the  -_d_e_v_i_c_e
          option.

     -display _h_o_s_t:_d_i_s_p_l_a_y[._s_c_r_e_e_n]
          Normally, _x_d_p_r gets the host and display number to  use
          from  the  environment  variable ``DISPLAY''.  One can,
          however, specify them explicitly; see _X(1).

     -device _p_r_i_n_t_e_r-_d_e_v_i_c_e
          Specifies the device type of  the  printer.   Available
          printer  devices  are "ln03" for the DEC LN03, "pp" for
          the IBM 3812 PagePrinter, and "ps" for  any  postscript
          printer  (e.g.  DEC  LN03R  or  LPS40).  The default is
          "ln03".

     -help
          This option displays the list of options known to xdpr.

     Any other arguments will be passed to  the  _x_w_d(1),  _x_p_r(1),
     and _l_p_r(1) commands as appropriate for each.
