Your application is responsible for -keeping the rate of writes to the printer below its continuous throughput rate -(typically about half of its nominal cps rating). Dot-matrix printers and -6-page-per-minute lasers can typically handle 80cps, so a good conservative -rule of thumb is to sleep for a second after shipping each 80-character line. - -.SH RETURN VALUE -The \fBmcprint\fR function returns \fBERR\fR if the write operation aborted -for some reason. In this case, errno will contain either an error associated -with \fBwrite(2)\fR or one of the following: -.TP 5 -ENODEV -Capabilities for printer redirection don't exist. -.TP 5 -ENOMEM -Couldn't allocate sufficient memory to buffer the printer write. - -When \fBmcprint\fR succeeds, it returns the number of characters actually -sent to the printer. -.SH PORTABILITY -The \fBmcprint\fR call was designed for \fBncurses\fR(3X), and is not found -in SVr4 curses, 4.4BSD curses, or any other previous version of curses. -.SH BUGS -Padding in the \fBmc5p\fR, \fBmc4\fR and \fBmc5\fR capabilities will not be -interpreted. -.SH SEE ALSO -\fBcurses\fR(3X)\fR -.\"# -.\"# The following sets edit modes for GNU EMACS -.\"# Local Variables: -.\"# mode:nroff -.\"# fill-column:79 -.\"# End: |
