I am using LPRng

That prints to a network printer, an HP LJ infact

[Oolon on derilium] more /etc/printcap 
laser1:rp=laser1:rm=10.1.1.2

[Oolon on derilium] 

My LJ at home has a dlink print server, and the same printcap works (with
different IP!)

No other files needed to be configured, I just compiled and installed it
LPRng. One day I might setup a cue, but LPRng does not *NEED* to have one.
