Printing Files
You can print many different types of files on the Dell printer device directly from the command line interface using the
standard CUPS way. The CUPS lpr utility allows you do that, but the driver's package replaces the standard lpr tool with a
much more user-friendly Dell LPR program.
To print any document file:
1. Type lpr <file_name> from the Linux shell command line and press Enter. The Dell LPR window appears.
When you type only lpr and press Enter, the Select file(s) to print window appears first. Select the files you want to
print and click Open.
2. In the Dell LPR window, select your printer from the list and change the printer and print job properties.
For details about the properties window, see
"Printing a Document".
3. Click OK to start printing.
Unix
Printer driver packages and installation instructions are available on the Drivers and Utilities CD.

2. Browse to D:\unix\docs\<your language>\UNIX_Printer_Driver_User_Manual.doc, where D:\ is the letter
of your CD-ROM drive.
