SYNOPSIS
       foomatic-getpjloptionsdevice

       foomatic-getpjloptionshostname port


DESCRIPTION
       foomatic-getpjloptions Reads the PJL options from local (parallel, USB,
       serial, ...) or remote (only socket, LPD is not bi-directional)  print-
       ers to standard output. The output can be piped into foomatic-addpjlop-
       tions to add options to the database.

       device    where  a  local  printer   is   connected,   e.g.   /dev/lp0,
                 /dev/usb/lp0.  Have  your parallel port in EPP/bi-directional
                 mode (see your BIOS settings).
