.TH LPFLUSH 1 "July, 1993"
|
|
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
lpflush \- clears the /dev/lp buffer
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
lpflush
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I lpflush
|
|
will discard all data stored in the
|
|
.I /dev/lp
|
|
buffer. It can be used to
|
|
abort printing when things are going very wrong. Of course,
|
|
.I lpflush
|
|
won't clear the data stored in the printer's internal buffer, but this
|
|
one is usually small enough. You may need to send a reset string to the
|
|
printer, especially if you're printing graphics.
