🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

👑 SYNOPSIS 👑

🎀 PRINTER|DEVICE-URI 🎀

• To specify a device-URI: -d<device-uri> or --device=<device-uri>
• To specify a CUPS printer: -p<printer> or --printer=<printer>

---

🌈 MODE 🌈

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -l<level>, --logging=<level> — Set the logging level 💜
  • <level> can be: none, info*, error, warn, debug
  • (*default) — so info is the vibe unless you say otherwise
• -g — Run in debug mode. This is the same as option: -ldebug 🔥
