NAME
       xdpr - dump an X window directly to a printer

SYNOPSIS
       xdpr   [	  filename  ]  [  -display host:display	 ]  [  -dprinter  ]  [
       -device printer_device ] [ option...  ]

DESCRIPTION
       xdpr uses the commands xwd(1), xpr(1), and lp(1) to dump an  X  window,
       process	it  for	 a  particular	printer	 type, and print it out on the
       printer of your choice.	This is the easiest way to get a printout of a
       window.	Xdpr by default will print the largest possible representation
       of the window on the output page.

       The options for xdpr are the same as those for xpr, xwd , and lp .  The
       most  commonly-used  options  are described below; see the manual pages
       for these commands for more detailed descriptions of the	 many  options
       available.

       filename
	      Specifies a file containing a window dump (created by xwd) to be
	      printed instead of selecting an X window.

       -dprinter
	      Specifies a printer to send the output to.  If a printer name is
	      not  specified here, xdpr (really, lp ) will send your output to
	      the printer specified by the PRINTER environment	variable.   Be
	      sure  that  type	of the printer matches the type specified with
	      the -device option.

       -display host:display[.screen]
	      Normally, xdpr gets the host and display number to use from  the
	      environment  variable  ``DISPLAY''.   One	 can, however, specify
	      them explicitly; see X11(7).

       -device printer-device
	      Specifies the device type of  the	 printer.   Available  printer
	      devices  are  "ln03"  for	 the  DEC  LN03, "pp" for the IBM 3812
	      PagePrinter, and "ps" for any postscript printer (e.g. DEC LN03R
	      or LPS40).  The default is "ln03".

       -help  This option displays the list of options known to xdpr.

       Any  other  arguments  will  be passed to the xwd(1), xpr(1), and lp(1)
       commands as appropriate for each.
