Win32 LPR/LPRM/LPQ	        Angus Duggan	$Date: 2000/08/31 22:09:33 $

This archive contains clients for Berkeley lpd daemons, to allow printing from
Win32 (Windows NT/Windows95) machines to lpd-hosted printers on a network.
The programs implement RFC 1179 clients.

They have been compiled under Windows NT 4.0

-r--r--r--   1 angus    None          964 Oct 23  1999 makefile

The makefile is for Visual C++, but will probably work for other
compilers.

INSTALLATION

Copy lpr.exe, lpq.exe, and lprm.exe into a directory on your PATH.
Alternatively, recompile with your favourite compiler and install those
executables.

REGISTRY

These programs use the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FreeWare\Lpr
to store the sequence number for LPR, and printer to host associations. If you
want to add a new association (which will allow you to print with 
"lpr -Pprinter" instead of the full specification "lpr -Pprinter@host"), add a
value "printer" to that key, with the host as a string type value (REG_SZ or
REG_EXPAND_SZ). The environment variables PRINTER and PRINTHOST supply the
default printer and lpd host respectively. If just PRINTER is specified, the
default host will be looked up in the registry.

COPYING
