| LPRng | 3.8.26 | GPL and Artistic | LPRng Print Spooler | The LPRng software is an enhanced, extended, and portable implementation of the Berkeley LPR print spooler functionality. While providing the same interface and meeting RFC1179 requirements, the implementation is completely new and provides support for the following features: lightweight (no databases needed) lpr, lpc, and lprm programs; dynamic redirection of print queues; automatic job holding; highly verbose diagnostics; multiple printers serving a single queue; client programs do not need to run SUID root; greatly enhanced security checks; and a greatly improved permission and authorization mechanism. The source software compiles and runs on a wide variety of UNIX systems, and is compatible with other print spoolers and network printers that use the LPR interface and meet RFC1179 requirements. LPRng provides emulation packages for the SVR4 lp and lpstat programs, eliminating the need for another print spooler package. These emulation packages can be modified according to local requirements, in order to support vintage printing systems. For users that require secure and/or authenticated printing support, LPRng supports Kerberos V, MIT Kerberos IV Print Support, and PGP authentication. LPRng is being adopted by MIT for use as their Campus Wide printing support system. Additional authentication support is extremely simple to add. |
| mpage | 2.5.3 | BSD | A tool for printing multiple pages of text on each printed page. | The mpage utility takes plain text files or PostScript(TM) documents as input, reduces the size of the text, and prints the files on a PostScript printer with several pages on each sheet of paper. Mpage is very useful for viewing large printouts without using up tons of paper. Mpage supports many different layout options for the printed pages. Mpage should be installed if you need a useful utility for viewing long text documents without wasting paper. |
| xvprint | 1.0b1 | GPL | Xview Based front-end for the ldp - line printer spooler daemon. | XVPrint is a Xview graphical front-end for the lpd (BSD Line Printer Spooler), which allows you to use the 'lpr', 'lpq' and 'lprm' commands in an easy way. If you want to build the source package you need the XView API (Application Programming Interface) provided with the xview-devel package. |
“Linux is being taught in schools. It’s getting easier to find skills. It’s something whose time is coming.” — David Larsen, director of IS in Murray City, Utah.
