They have the same sort of form feed, but usually with wider paper and green bars. iirc they print a whole line at a time, which is why they are so-named. It's easy to see how one would get confused, since there is `/dev/lp` and `lp` or `lpr` yea, if I `man 4 lp` (manpage for the device) on Amazon Linux 2 it is telling me about "parallel line printers" -- (`man lp` (for the lp command) mentions "hardcopy device, such as a printer or microfilm recorder".) Very cool nonetheless. |
