In Unix, how do I get a printed copy of a manual page?

Note: In the examples below, replace command with the name of the Unix command for which you would like the man page, and printer with the name of the printer to which you are printing.

In Unix, if you want to print a manual page to your local printer, at the prompt, enter: man command | col -bx | ansiprt If you do not have ansiprt on your system, see the Knowledge Base document In Unix, how do I print a file to my local printer?

If you are using a BSD system to send the manual page to a networked printer, at the prompt, enter: man command | lpr -Pprinter On System V systems, enter: man command | lp -dprinter
