 121 before the \fI-o\fR option and/or any printer names, otherwise
 122 the default (not-completed) value will be used in the request to
 123 the scheduler.
 124 .SH COMPATIBILITY
 125 Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names
 126 to contain any printable character except SPACE and TAB. Also,
 127 printer and class names are \fBnot\fR case-sensitive.
 128 .LP
 129 The "-h" and "-W" options are unique to CUPS.
 130 .LP
 131 The Solaris "-f", "-P", and "-S" options are silently ignored.
