Hi !

I am trying to use foomatic (http://www.linuxprinting.org) as a print 
filter under FreeBSD-4.8-RELEASE.
Without any options, it works great.
Now, I want to give options to the filter script.
From the foomatic documentation, this is done by (depending on your 
print spooler):
lpr -Pqueue -J'option1 option2' --> for LPD
lpr -Pqueue -o option1 -o option2 --> for GNUlpr
lpr -Pqueue -Z option1 -Z option2 --> for LPRng

Now, I use the standard lpd print spooler that comes with FreeBSD. From 
the lpr man page, it says that:
-J job  Job name to print on the burst page.  Normally, the first file's 
name is used.

So, should I use another switch, like -Z, although it is for LPRng ?

Thanks.

Antoine
