NAME
     printtool - OpenWindows tool for printing files

SYNOPSIS
     printtool [ -P printer ] [ -v ] [ -? ]

DESCRIPTION
     Printtool is a DeskSet utility  that  provides  a  Graphical
     User Interface (GUI) for the lp(1), cancel(1), and lpstat(1)
     printing functions.

     Printtool is an  XView-based  OpenWindows  application  that
     allows  users  to  easily  control standard printing options
     such as the name of the file to be printed, the name of  the
     printer  to  use,  whether  or  not  to print a header page,
     number of copies to print,  print  method,  etc.   Printtool
     also  lets  users determine the status of print jobs in pro-
     gress and cancel print jobs that are waiting in the queue.

OPTIONS
     In addition to  the  generic  tool  arguments  supported  by
     xview(7), printtool accepts the following options:

     -P printer  Send output to the named printer.

     -v          Show the version number and the usage message of
                 this release of the printtool program.

     -?          Same as -v

USAGE
     Printtool is part of the OpenWindows user  environment.  For
     more  information on the basic functions of OpenWindows, see
     the Solaris User's Guide

     Users will normally use printtool to print files by entering
     the  name  of  a  file  in  the  Filename field, selecting a
     printer from the scrollable list of  possible  printers  and
     then  clicking on the Print button.  The number of copies to
     print is set to 1 by default but can be  easily  changed  by
     using  the up/down arrows in the Copies control or by enter-
     ing a number.  The Header check-box allows a user to specify
     whether  or  not  a header page should be printed as part of
     the print job.  The setting of  the  Header  check-box  will
     override the setting in the Properties... window.

     Users may also drag and drop file icons from  filemgr(1)  or
     mail attachments from mailtool(1) onto printtool's drop tar-
     get instead of typing a name in the  Filename:  text  field.
     The  drop  target  is  a small rectangular area in the upper
     right-hand corner of the printtool window.  If the printtool
     window  is  not  open  users can simply drag and drop a file
     icon onto the icon for printtool itself.

     The status of the printer queue can be checked automatically
     or  by  clicking  the Status button.  Print jobs may be ter-
     minated by selecting their name from the Job scrollable list
     and then clicking on the Stop Printing button.

     A print method can be invoked  interactively  by  using  the
     "Override  Default  Print  Method"  check-box in the Proper-
     ties... window and entering the print method  in  the  space
     provided.  This  option  allows finer control over how files
     are to be printed.  Printtool will not add  or  append  any-
     thing  to  or  from  the  print  method.   Users can use the
     environment variables $FILES, $PRINTER, $LPDEST and $COPIES,
     which  are  specified in printtool, to write their own print
     method.  For instance, the entry:

          mp -l
     will pass  the  file  through  the  mp(1)  filter  with  the
     "landscape" option selected.  This is the equivalent of exe-
     cuting the following command on the command line:

          cat $FILE | mp -l | lp

     The Information... button  brings  up  a  text  window  with
     information about the selected printer.

     The Properties... button brings  up  a  window  that  allows
     users  to  specify  global  defaults  for  printtool.  These
     include whether or not to print  header  pages,  whether  to
     beep  or  flash  when  all  jobs done, and whether or not to
     override default print method.  The Apply button  only  sets
     these  options for the current process.  To save the current
     settings permanently the Save as Defaults button  should  be
     clicked.

RESOURCES
     On startup, printtool uses the following resources which are
     stored in $HOME/.desksetdefaults:

     Resource:      deskset.printtool.checkInterval
     Values:        Status check interval (numeric)
     Description    This is the number of seconds between  status
                    checks  on the printer.  The default value is
                    10 seconds.

     Resource:      deskset.printtool.headerPage
     Values:        true, false
     Description    This is the flag  for  printing  with  header
                    page  or  not. The default value is false (no
                    header page).

     Resource:      deskset.printtool.printMethodOverride
     Values:        true, false
     Description    This is the flag for overriding  the  default
                    print  method.   The  default  value is false
                    (use default print method which is determined
                    by Classing Engine).

     Resource:      deskset.printtool.lastPrintMethod
     Values:        Print method string or full  path  of  script
                    string
     Description    This is the print method for printing instead
                    of       the      default      method      if
                    deskset.printtool.printMethodOverride is  set
                    to true.

     Resource:      deskset.printtool.notifyFlash
     Values:        true, false
     Description    If set to true, printtool will flash the win-
                    dow  or  icon  when  all print jobs are done.
                    The default value is false (no flash).

     Resource:      deskset.printtool.notifyBeep
     Values:        true, false

                    print  jobs  are  done.  The default value is
                    false (no beep).
