LPRng needs rlpr too function with remote printer ques....

I pulled rlpr from Mandrake 8.1 to get printing working with LPRng....

(You can also grep the files in /etc/foomatic/lpd for rlpr....)

We add printers by directly calling foomatic....

foomatic-configure -s lprng -c "lpd://lp171-309/lp" -n lp171-309 -d 
Postscript -p HP-LaserJet_4100

after "installing" a printer as above look at your /etc/foomatic/lpd entry.

reading foomatic-configure you'll see why rlpr is needed. (just search 
for rlpr)
