Printing Overview
–b Number
Specifies the bottom margin. The bottom margin is the
number of blank lines to be left at the bottom of each page.
–B Value Specifies whether burst pages (continuous–form pages
separated at perforations) should be printed. The Value
variable consists of a two–character string. The first character
applies to header pages. The second character applies to
trailer pages. Each of the two characters can be one of the
following:
a
Always prints the (header or trailer) page for each file in
each print job.
n
Never prints the (header or trailer) page.
g
Prints the (header or trailer) page once for each print job
(group of files). For example, the –B ga flag specifies that a
header page be printed at the beginning of each print job
and that a trailer page be printed after each file in each print
job.
Note: In a remote print environment, the default is
determined by the remote queue on the server.
–e Option Specifies whether emphasized print is wanted.
+

!

–E Option Specifies whether double–high print is wanted.
+

–f FilterType A one–character identifier that specifies a filter through which
your print file or files are to be passed before being sent to the
printer. The available filter identifiers are p, which invokes the
pr filter, and n, which processes output from the troff
command.
–i Number Causes each line to be indented the specified number of
spaces. The Number variable must be included in the page
width specified by the –w flag.
–K Option Specifies whether condensed print is wanted.
+

–l Number Sets the page length to the specified number of lines. If the
Number variable is 0, the page length is ignored, and the
output is considered to be one continuous page. The page
length includes the top and bottom margins and indicates the
printable length of the paper.
