  Tried that, but it doesn't seem to connect to the LPRng server.
If i define my own printers, do i need to define a bunch of attributes
for it?

 As far as I can tell it printed ok, but no job sent to LPRng.

 Is it possible to turn of Xprint in Mozilla and revert to the old
way of defining printers with lpr -P xyz ???
