Example Print Configuration Directory
The X Print Service configuration directory is assumed to be
/usr/lib/X11/C/print
for the purposes of this
discussion. The configuration files will in actual use be distributed throughout the configuration hierarchy, as
described in the "Configuration Files Overview" section.
At the top level of the locale specific
print
directory, three subdirectories are defined. The
ddx-config
directory contains configuration information specific to X Print Server ddx drivers. The
models
directory defines
default attributes and internal font metrics for various models of printers. The
attributes
directory defines
attributes for the various X Printers defined on the host system. The following sections describe these directories in
more detail.
