\subsection{\dvipr}

The \dvipr\ program converts a \dvi\ file
to be printed on a Versatec printer/plotter.
This program is actually a shell script that runs a first pass program
called {\tt verser1} over the \dvi\ file
to produce an intermediate format file
that can be printed directly on the Versatec
with the {\tt verser2} program.
Neither program has been used recently,
and it is possible that they will not work immediately.
In any case, it is up to the system administrator
to figure out how to get {\tt verser2} run (typically via lpd(8)).

The options to \dvipr\ are summarised in Table~\ref{table:dvipr}.

\begin{table*}

\begin{tabular}{|@{\coltt}lp{5in}|}
\hline
\multicolumn1{|c}{\bf Option} & \multicolumn1{c|}{\bf Description} \\
\hline
-c &
This tells \dvipr\ to center the output. \\

-d \it drift &
This rarely used parameter controls the {\em drift\/} of a document.
See \S\ref{sec:drift}, p.~\pageref{sec:drift}, for details. \\

-h &
This causes printing to be done vertically.
This does not work well with fanfold paper,
and is largely useful only if you plan to use a reducing copier. \\

-m \it mag &
This applies a global magnification to the output.
See \S\ref{sec:dvimag}, p.~\pageref{sec:dvimag}. \\

-q &
This tells \dvipr\ to copy the intermediate output
from {\tt verser1} to standard output.
(See {\tt -v} below.) \\

-s &
This disables the \cccount\ numbers that are normally printed when
your document is being processed. \\

-v &
This tells \dvipr\ that the input file is an intermediate file,
not a \dvi\ file. \\
