The
LPTYPE option determines whether SAS is to use the lpr
or the lp
UNIX
command to print files.
The LPTYPE option has two forms:
-
-LPTYPE BSD
-
causes SAS to use the lpr
command to send files to the printer. The lpr
command is usually supported
on UNIX operating systems developed at the University of California, Berkeley,
such as HP-UX.
-
-LPTYPE SYSV
-
causes SAS to use the lp
command to send files to the printer. The lp
command is usually supported
on operating systems derived from UNIX System V, such as Solaris.
If you do not know whether to specify BSD or SYSV, check
with your system administrator.
By default, SAS uses the lpr
command if your operating system is derived from Berkeley's version;
otherwise, it uses the lp
command.
