Thankyou for your suggestion. I wound up with the
following /etc/printcap on my remote FBSD bos:
lp|HP4M|hp|printer:\
:lp=:sh:rm=10.0.10.1:rp=text:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hp:if=/usr/local/libexec/ifhp:
where 10.0.10.1 is the IP of the printer not of the server machine.

Everthing's printing fine now. But I do have another question. I'm
using DHCP on the server to assign IP addresses to the hp printer, the
LAN FBSD and hopefully another LAN FBSD for my kids. How do you put the
IP addresses

So far so good. When
