Print from the command line

The default printer submission command depends on the host’s spooler. BrightINSTALL may optionally integrate the BrightQ Print Job Manager with existing lp/lpr commands.

BrightQ PJM

pjm --no-gui -P office /path/to/file.pdf
pjm --no-gui -P office -o PageSize=Tabloid /path/to/file.pdf
pjm --no-gui -P office -o raw /path/to/file.ps

System V and BSD commands

lp -d office -n3 /path/to/file.pdf
lpr -P office -#3 /path/to/file.pdf

Use -o for supported generic or driver-specific filters. You may combine options, such as media type and page size, subject to what the driver supports.

Raw mode

Raw jobs bypass filters and postprocessing. They are suitable only when the document is already in a format that the printer can understand.

pjm --no-gui -P office -o raw /path/to/print-ready-data

See filter options for examples and PJM reference for other flags.
