The following table gives an overview of generally known lp or lpr command line options.
The table indicates whether the command line option is supported by the Océ VarioPrint 6000 Series or not. Not supported options are recognised by the printer, but they do not result in any action. Some command line options are handled locally on the user’s host system, and as such will never be known at the printer. These options are marked as "n.a." (not applicable).
