Is this a remote printer entry? Passing arguments to a remote printer 'if'
is different, I think.

I don't think the lpr-package is broken, but if you really want to try,
get LPRng 3.6.13 (the release I use) at
	http://www.astart.com/Lprng/LPRng.html

Before that, I used lpr-0.35 without any problems.
