Lpr, lpq, lprm

On the CS systems we use the Berkeley printer spooling package. There is an alternate package used on SysV machines, it is not in use, and, thus, will not be discussed.

By default, they all operate on the default printer (`lp'), a different printer can be used by using the `-Pprinter-name' argument. Alternately, the environment variable PRINTER may be set to your preferred printer.
