I cannot get this to work.  No one on usenet alt.os.linux.slackware has 
been able to help.

 SETUP printed the test page via smbclient!  That is* sneaky* and has 
wasted about 8 hours of my time before I figured this out.  

The problem is lpr is not tested in SETUP and I cant figure out myself 
how to get lpr to print.  As it stands now, I am getting a 'broken pipe' 
message from lpq.

Anyone here have it figured out?
