DESCRIPTION
tsm.lpadmin
is used to add (or remove) a printer to the
LP
spooling system when the printer is connected to the system
through a terminal running the Terminal Session Manager (see
tsm(1)).
tsm.lpadmin
is a shell script that uses
lpadmin
in the normal way but also creates a named pipe to which
LP
output is directed (see
lpadmin(1)).
This named pipe is opened by
TSM
and data flowing from it is sent to the printer through the terminal.

tsm.lpadmin
recognizes the following options:
- -p printer
Names a printer to be created with an associated pipe.
If
-p
is used,
-m
must also be specified.
- -m model
Selects a model interface program for
printer.
model
is one of the model interface names supplied with the
LP
software (see the Models topic in the
lpadmin(1))
manual entry.
If
-m
is used,
-p
must also be specified.
- -x printer
Removes
printer
from the
LP
system.
No other options are allowed with
-x.
Restrictions
To use
tsm.lpadmin
you must be user
lp
or
