LPRNGTOOL(1)		     General Commands Manual		    LPRNGTOOL(1)

NAME
     lprngtool - configuration and Graphics User Interface for LPRng

SYNOPSIS
     lprngtool [ -V ]

DESCRIPTION
     The  lprngtool  is a Tcl/Tk GUI which allows you to add/delete/modify local
     printers, and monitor and manage local and remote print queues using LPRng.
     LPRngTool does NOT work with Berkeley or Sys V style  printing!   You  must
     have  LPRng  installed  to  make  use of LPRngTool.  If you want to control
     Berkeley lpd spools, use Red Hat's Printtool.
