NAME
       lasergnu - send gnuplot output to a printer

SYNOPSIS
       lasergnu [ flags ] plot-command...

DESCRIPTION
       lasergnu runs gnuplot(1) in an environment to produce typeset output on
       an IMAGEN  or Postscript printer.

       The gnuplot commands plot-command are performed and the output sent  to
       the  printer.   If  the	-f option specifies a file for input, the plot
       command is optional.  The command-line plot commands are executed prior
       to any in the file(s).

       For  example,  to  plot	the  function sin(x) from -1 to +1, and to use
       printer im1, use the command
	   lasergnu -Pim1 'plot [-1:1] sin(x) with lines'
       To execute the gnuplot command file myplot, on the  postscript  printer
       lw0, use the command
	   lasergnu -Plw0 -p -f myplot
       The following switches are recognized:

       -p     Use  the	postscript  language  to  make	the  plot,  instead of
	      Impress.	This is for use on Postscript printers only. This uses
	      a double-size plot in landscape mode as the default.

       -P printer
	      The  output  of  this  program is intended for printer.	If the
	      file is being spooled, this determines the printer it is spooled
	      to (default: $LASER).  Be sure to use the -p flag if the printer
	      is a postscript printer.

       -f file
	      Take gnuplot commands from the named file.  Multiple files   may
	      be supplied with separate -f options.

       -t title
	      Specify the title of the plot.

       -b     Do not print a banner page.

       -J     Do not print a banner page.

       -help  Prints a list of options.
