  12. Now that we know SGI wants local printers set
  13. up with only lp (and not lpr), is it transparent
  14. to print to a local SGI lp printer from our 100's
  15. of Berkeley lpr /etc/printcap machines? If so,
  16. what is needed in the printcap and in the lpadmin
  17. setup?
  18.  
  19. Sigh. Why can't they just join the lpr world?
